Akro-Mils 30280 Super-Sized Plastic Storage Bins — 4-Pack

Model: 30280 | Sold: 4 bins per carton | Capacity: 200 lbs per bin

When standard shelf bins aren't large enough for your operation, the Akro-Mils 30280 Super-Sized Bin delivers the capacity, durability, and accessibility that high-volume storage demands. Built from industrial-grade high-density polypropylene (HDPP), these bins are engineered for daily use in warehouses, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and automotive shops.

What Makes the Akro-Mils 30280 Different from Standard Shelf Bins?

Most small parts bins max out around 50–75 lbs and measure under 12" in length. The 30280 is purpose-built for high-volume storage — nearly three times the interior space of a standard shelf bin, with a 200 lb per bin load rating. That means fewer bins to manage, less restocking, and faster picking in high-traffic environments.

The open hopper-front design lets workers grab parts without lifting the bin off the shelf — a critical efficiency feature on busy production lines or in fast-moving stockrooms.

Product Specifications

Key Features Explained

One-Piece Molded Construction — No seams, no joints, no weak points. The bin won't crack or split under load, even with repeated use in demanding environments. This also makes cleaning simple — wipe it down or rinse it out.

200 lb Load Rating Per Bin — Suitable for heavy parts including castings, fittings, hardware, hoses, and bulk fasteners. The reinforced side ribs and bottom prevent bowing or flexing under maximum load.

Hopper-Front Open Access — The angled open front allows workers to see and reach contents without removing the bin from the rack or shelf. This is especially valuable on assembly lines and in parts rooms where speed matters.

Stackable Design — When not mounted on a rack, bins stack securely on top of one another, conserving floor space in storage areas or staging zones.

Molded-In Label Area — Each bin includes a recessed label slot on the front face for labeling cards, part numbers, or barcodes — compatible with standard label holders (sold separately).

Chemical Resistance — Polypropylene resists weak acids, alkalis, oils, and most industrial cleaning agents. Safe for use in environments where bins come into contact with lubricants, cutting fluids, or cleaning solvents.

Color-Coded Organization — Available in five colors (Red, Yellow, Blue, Grey, Clear) to support visual management systems, 5S programs, and zone-based inventory control.
