Three 240-liter bins neatly stored on a slope: the Alubert 3 boxes in Anthracite

Three large 240-liter bins side by side can quickly look chaotic, especially on a paved driveway in front of the house. This setup shows how calm it looks with the Alubert 3 boxes aluminum garbage bin box in Anthracite RAL 7016: three bins disappear behind a continuous, simple front, and the yard stays tidy. Even where the pavement has a noticeable slope.

The box stands freely here between two large planter boxes on a sloping driveway in a residential area, without leaning against a wall. That is exactly what the Alubert 3 boxes garbage bin box is designed for: a clean solution for three bins that you can place flexibly and that also stands straight on a sloped surface.

Who benefits from the Alubert 3 boxes on a sloping parking spot?

This box is the right choice if you collect three separate fractions and the parking spot is definitely not level. Typically, this concerns:

  • Driveways and yards sloping toward the street or the drain
  • Semi-detached houses where the bins are visibly placed on a sloping driveway
  • Properties where the bins stand freely in the yard instead of against a straight wall
  • Households with three 240-liter bins (residual waste, organic, paper) that use the bins less frequently

Typical allocation of the three compartments:

  1. Residual waste, organic waste, paper
  2. Residual waste, yellow bag, paper
  3. Residual waste, organic, yellow bin
  4. Two 240-liter bins plus a narrower 120-liter bin in the same compartment

If you need more compartments, the Alubert 4 boxes is the next step. If two are enough, take a look at the Alubert 2 boxes All sizes in this series can be found with the 3 boxes garbage bin boxes.

Aluminum in Anthracite RAL 7016: why the material convinces outdoors

The Alubert is made of powder-coated aluminum, combined with corrosion-resistant stainless steel (A2) and galvanized steel in the load-bearing parts. Aluminum does not rust, is lightweight, and withstands sun, rain, and frost permanently. In the photos, you can see how matte and unobtrusive the anthracite-colored front looks on the gray pavement: dark enough not to stand out, calm enough not to disturb between planter boxes and house facade.

Anthracite RAL 7016 is the standard color of the Alubert and thus the most affordable option. If you want it lighter or different, the 3 boxes are also available in black (RAL 9005) and gray aluminum (RAL 9007); other RAL colors are optionally available at an extra cost. You can best compare which color makes sense when directly in the Aluminum Category.

Slanted lid with slope: why this matters especially on a slope

The lid of the Alubert is deliberately designed as a slanted lid with a slope. You can see this clearly in the detail photos: the lid surface slopes forward so that rainwater, meltwater, and leaves run off naturally instead of collecting on top. This way, no puddles remain on the box, and snow slides off more easily in winter. Especially if the box is already on a sloped parking spot, you don’t want water standing on the lid as well.

The lid is opened via a handle with an integrated lock. A gas pressure damper holds it gently and controlled, so it doesn’t slam shut. Through the chain lock, the box lid pulls the bin lid up directly when opening, so you no longer have to touch the bin itself. The doors in front are designed for easy removal of the bin and are well ventilated through horizontal ventilation slots, which reduces odors.

Setting up on a slope: clarifying space and ground properly

This is exactly the crucial point in these customer photos: the box stands on a paved driveway that is noticeably sloped. To ensure a 3 boxes still stands level and stable, the Alubert has height-adjustable feet with 10 to 75 mm of play. This compensates for a slope or uneven paving stones without needing to place anything underneath, and the front remains aligned.

You should clarify the following before setting up on a slope:

  • Placement area: The 3 boxes is about 209 cm wide and 80 cm deep; plan for the doors to swing open forward.
  • Ground: firm, load-bearing surface like paving, concrete, or a compacted area; no soft lawn that gives way on a slope.
  • Slope direction: Position the box so you shorten the height feet on the uphill side and extend them on the downhill side, then it will stand level.
  • Stability: The box stands securely due to its own weight and adjustable feet and does not need to be screwed into the ground, which is practical for a paved driveway.

Dimensions in detail: Outside, the 3 boxes for 240 liters is about 121 cm high, 209 cm wide, and 80 cm deep; the clear width per compartment fits 120- and 240-liter bins (a 60-liter bin also fits). You can find all 240-liter models collected in the 240 Liter Category.
