Wooden garbage bin box Holzmichl 6 boxes for 240 liters in anthracite
Six bins in one row: the Holzmichl 6 boxes for 240 liters
This configuration stands against the facade of a new-build home, directly on the paved driveway. Six boxes for 240-liter bins stand in one continuous row, all fronts made of natural spruce wood, with frames and lids in Anthracite RAL 7016. What immediately stands out in the photos: The unit is over four meters long and still looks calm because the wooden surfaces break up the length and the dark frames neatly separate the individual boxes.
The Holzmichl combines a hot-dip galvanized and powder-coated steel frame with an insert made of real spruce wood. So you get the look of a wooden cladding without the structure itself being made of wood. That exact combination can be seen in the pictures: light wooden fronts, dark edges, and flat lids forming one continuous line.
Who benefits from a 6 boxes garbage bin box
Six spaces are more than a single household needs. This size is particularly suitable when several parties or several types of bins come together:
- Apartment buildings with two to three residential units
- Semi-detached houses with a shared garbage area
- Large households with high waste volumes and separate recycling
- Businesses and rental properties with a central collection point
- Properties where garden waste or waste paper also accumulates
A typical arrangement with 240-liter bins looks like this:
- Residual waste, often using two spaces
- Organic waste
- Paper and cardboard
- Lightweight packaging, meaning the yellow bin
- One or two spaces left free for seasonal bins
If you need fewer spaces, you can find the right sets in the overview of the 6 boxes garbage bin boxes and the adjacent sizes.
Material and color: spruce wood against Anthracite
The frame is made of hot-dip galvanized steel with a powder coating. In the photos, it is finished in Anthracite RAL 7016, the shade that blends in most discreetly with light facades and gray paving. The spruce boards are set into a surrounding frame and are natural here, without any coating. This gives the front a warm appearance and picks up the tone of the carport in the background.
The practical thing about it: The wooden inserts can be replaced or customized as needed. So you are not tied to the original configuration if you later prefer a different shade or wood look. You can see more variants of this design in the category wooden garbage bin boxes.
Lid, access and operation
All four photos show the hinged-lid version, not a planting roof. The lids are slightly angled so that rainwater drains away cleanly with a 2.5-degree slope. They are opened using gas springs, while additional impact dampers prevent the lid from falling back hard.
Access is twofold: the lid at the top for putting waste in, and the door at the front for rolling the bin out. The lid and door can be locked with a central lock. This is relevant for a 6-box unit because a shared waste collection area is often located right next to the driveway, as in these pictures. If you want to take a closer look at the lid version, you can find it collected under garbage bin box with hinged lid.
Space and ground conditions
The 6 boxes version for 240-liter bins is 444 cm wide and 80 cm deep, with the lid bringing the height to 118 cm. The clear internal dimensions of each compartment are 61.5 cm wide, 80 cm deep and 109 cm high. The box is suitable for 90-, 120- and 240-liter bins.
In addition to the footprint itself, allow for maneuvering space in front. The doors swing open toward the front, and it must be possible to roll the bin out. In the photos, this is achieved because the unit is positioned against the facade and the entire driveway serves as open space.
The ground must be level and stable. Paving like this, concrete or slabs are ideal. You do not need to level out minor unevenness, as there are adjusting screws on the height-adjustable feet with an adjustment range of 15 to 60 mm. If there is a steeper slope, it is worth taking a look at the height-adjustable garbage bin boxes for sloping ground. Delivery is on a pallet, and assembly is carried out yourself using press-fit threads and metric screws.
Conclusion
This configuration shows what a 6-box setup looks like when it has been deliberately planned: a continuous front along the house wall instead of six separate bins scattered across the driveway. The combination of anthracite and natural spruce wood works well with a bright new-build home because it creates contrast without appearing intrusive. If you need to accommodate six bins, the Holzmichl 6 boxes is the direct equivalent of these photos.
