High collection quotas are achieved through motivation and user friendly collection systems. The comprehensive range of Schaefer containers can be emptied with the combination lifting devices generally in use. The selection of type and size of the containers or a combination of several systems will depend on the topography and infrastructure of the region.

A consistent waste management concept will also require the collection of harmful substances to be as complete as possible starting with households and commercial premises. Schaefer's innovative product range also includes appropriate containers for this purpose which were developed in co-operation with local public and private waste management enterprises and have proved to be successful in practical use.
