Underground System

With the underground version of the depot container system the container vanishes into the ground saving space and noise. The input shafts remain visible above ground and harmonise with the urban or rural landscape. Due to the low input height, this system is easy to use, both for children and wheelchair users.


Underground collection site for the central collection of glass in an urban area. Reduction of noise pollution and creation of an attractive townscape.

Reliable system
The underground system consists of three basic components:
the steel outer base container with options of 2, 3 or 4 collection containers with capacities of 3 m³ to 5 m³, which are installed inside the outer container and the above ground components with input shafts for glass, paper, plastic and other recyclable materials.

Easy emptying
The emptying of the container is also extremely easy. For this the input shaft is first easily opened and the container is then lifted up by means of a crane. In order to avoid the risk of accidents, a safety grill automatically swings over the top of the outer base container and safely covers up the opening. The container is lifted by the crane into the loading bay of the vehicle and emptied by the reliable Grumbach System with a one person crew.
