lastic Omnion Zarn - backs cracked and failed (Milwakee); Most expensive LHDPE
10fto.-
high failure rate in Chandler, AZ & with Lemay
Monte Mink - Too expensive for same product as Roto
MI - Second highest cost X -Link product
Rehrig - handles broke off in Manteca, CA "
SSI - too rigid - crush tests kept them deformed /never returned to shape
Choose Toter & Roto:
I Roto can be used as BY Corn posters at end of trashcan life
Toter is totally recycleable now as LHDPE and has lowest cost per unit
