Designed for use in a wide range of outdoor settings, the BearSaver Bear-Resistant “Mini Depot” Trash Cans and Recycle Bins are resistant to harsh environmental conditions,, large animals and vandalism. Here is a closer look at the two “Mini Depot” receptacles available from BearSaver.

The BearSaver Mini Depot Recycling Enclosure, ADA Compliant (Item #MDYP-LL) triple input recycle bin is designed for three recycling streams. The Mini Depot can easily be configured in different ways by simply changing the decals.

Offering a 120-gallon capacity with three 40-gallon plastic liners, which are included with the product, the Mini Depot weighs 375 pounds and measures 48 inches wide, 45 inches tall and 30 inches long. Each of the three openings within the Mini Depot measure 5”x5” in size.

The BearSaver Mini Depot Combo Trash/Recycling Enclosure, ADA Compliant (Item #MDYP-LL-X) receptacle is a triple input trash/recycle bin with a 120-gallon capacity. Capable of holding three 40-gallon rectangular liners, which are included with the product, this Mini Depot has standard openings measuring 5”x5”, 10”x5” and 5”x5”. The center opening is larger with this model in order to accommodate trash.

Thanks to the animal-resistant baffle located below the loading holes, hungry animals are kept out of the receptacle while also keeping people from removing collected items.

The BearSaver Difference
Both of the Mini Depots available from BearSaver are designed to be used in any environment. When used in marine environments or areas where corrosive elements are present, however, an application of cold galvanizing compound is recommended pior to powder coating. All hinges, striker plates, handles and hardware used on the Mini Depot products are either stainless steel or zinc-coated steel for corrosion resistance. For additional corrosion resistance, the housing and doors are made from galvannealed steel and finished with a textured powder coat process that makes it resistant to salt spray, humidity, ultraviolet rays, fog, chemicals, and abrasion.
The BearSaver Mini Depots are also made with an animal-resistant top-loading door and a separate service door, allowing the user to remove the contents without needing to lift them up and out of the container. Not only does this make the process of removing the material more convenient, but it is also less strenuous on the back.
