This Charles Bentley grit bin is a straightforward, practical solution for storing salt and grit at commercial and hospitality premises. The bright yellow colouring makes it easily identifiable, and the 200 litre capacity means there is enough storage for a meaningful supply of de-icing material — sufficient to service car parks, delivery areas, and pedestrian walkways throughout an extended cold spell without constant refilling.

In practice, having a properly stocked grit bin close to main entrances and high-footfall external areas is one of the more effective ways to reduce the risk of slip-and-fall incidents during icy conditions. The bin is supplied with a snow shovel, which makes it straightforward for staff to apply grit quickly during or after a frost without needing to source separate tools.

The construction is heavy-duty plastic, which holds up well outdoors over repeated winter seasons. It resists cracking under cold temperatures and does not corrode — a practical advantage over metal alternatives in exposed positions.

  • Large capacity reduces how often the bin needs refilling during prolonged cold weather
  • Supplied snow shovel means staff can act immediately without hunting for equipment
  • Bright yellow colouring helps staff locate the bin quickly in poor conditions
  • Durable plastic construction suitable for permanent outdoor placement
  • Lidded design keeps contents dry and prevents salt clumping

This bin is well suited to pubs, restaurants, hotels, care homes, and other commercial premises where managing external pedestrian safety is a routine winter responsibility. For larger sites with multiple access points — such as distribution yards or large retail premises — it is worth considering whether more than one unit, or a higher-capacity option, would better cover the area.

If you are unsure how many bins you need or where best to position them for your site layout, our team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is a single 200 litre bin sufficient for a busy commercial site?

For a single entrance or compact external area it is generally adequate, but larger sites with multiple access points — car parks, delivery yards, or separate pedestrian routes — will typically benefit from more than one bin positioned at key locations. Think about where gritting is most likely to be needed quickly and whether staff can realistically reach a single bin in time.

Does the bin need to be fixed down or can it be free-standing?

The bin is designed to stand free without fixing, which makes it easy to reposition as needed. For exposed locations where wind could be a concern, placing it against a wall or fence line adds stability. It does not require any groundwork or installation.

What type of material can be stored in the bin?

It is designed to hold rock salt, grit, or a salt and grit mixture — all of which are standard for de-icing external surfaces. The lidded design helps keep the contents dry, which is important as damp salt can clump and become difficult to spread.
