Trash chutes are essential for construction, remodeling and demolition projects. Debris chutes are available in lengths to meet all needs, ranging from 21 feet to 70 feet. The best chutes are made of medium density polyethylene for optimal sturdiness and durability. Good quality construction trash chutes have large diameters of 32 inches and steel intake hopper throats. Chutes can also be custom built for individuals requiring longer chute assemblies. There are even chutes available that have hoppers along the length of the chutes to allow for workers on multiple floors to use the debris chutes. Construction debris chutes are ideal for almost all debris applications. They are built to manage both liquids and solids, and they are highly resistant to abrasion.
Debris chutes are an easy, safe and environmentally friendly method of debris removal. Once the chutes are installed, workers simply toss debris of all types in the trash chute hopper. The liquid or solid material falls down the chute to a dumpster or other waste collection container. This is a much safer option than tossing materials freely out of a window down to a dumpster. Without the aid of a chute, the material can miss the dumpster and injure people or damage property and valuables. Additionally, chutes prevent potentially toxic materials and particles from entering the atmosphere and workers’ lungs.
Debris chutes are sold in packages that include the chutes, support frame, support legs for the hopper, lifting bar, lifting chains and a package to rig the chutes to the windows. Trash chute parts and components can also be purchased separately. Individuals with chutes weighing over 1,000 pounds should purchase a separate support frame to support the unit. Customers can purchase special packages for installing chutes to roof tops and scaffolds and winch assembly packages to allow for easy chute installation. Customers can also purchase additional chute sections that are four feet long and even chute liners. Check out the selection of trash chutes and parts to meet all construction needs.
