FILTER HANDLING VIDEO     



Our goal is to cut your used oil filter handling costs.  The Vortex Recycling mechanized 5-yard or 8-yard hopper system will eliminate:

bullet

Lifting, wrestling and jockeying full barrels to the front of a full van while trying to determine which is full or empty.

bullet

Loading or un-loading barrels to ship out.

bullet

Digging out leaking barrels from the front of the truck.

bullet

Driving your delivery truck around the yard to unload filters in a special area.

All of the equipment needed for our hopper system will be provided to you by Vortex Recycling, at no cost, to assist in handling your filters.  At the touch of a button our barrel tipper makes it all very easy to fill the hoppers.  Using our battery powered drill, lids can be removed and put back on in seconds.  Our hoppers and your forklift can move 18 to 30 barrels at a time to either an outside or inside storage or shipping. 

With our hoppers, a 7’ x 16’ area can store 160 to 270 barrels.  We can also supply hoppers with rollers on the front so they can be moved around your warehouse or onto a trailer like a wheelbarrow.  When empty and not in use, they can nest inside each other like paper cups. 

Once the hoppers are filled they can be transported off your dock by either your or our semi-van.  They can also be loaded and transported by flatbed trailers.  You may also elect to dump them into our bulk aluminum end-dump or rail cars using our hopper tipper that hydraulically empties the hoppers using your forklift.
