Hook lift vs marrel vs crane bins

If you are comparing a marrel bin (often spelled marrell) with a hook bin, the loading method is the same: both are hook lift bins, pulled on board by the truck’s own hook hoist. What changes is the bin design and the hoist it is built for. Crane bins are loaded a different way again.

CompareHook lift bins (Binfab)Marrel binsCrane bins
How the bin is loadedThe truck’s hook hoist grabs the 60 mm curved lifting ring and pulls the bin on board. No crane needed.Loaded the same way, by the truck’s hook hoist. Marrel describes the hoist and bin design type, not a different loading method.Lifted on and off by crane or excavator rather than by the truck’s hook hoist.
What it suitsConstruction and demolition, scrap metal, general waste, building material and recycling. Can also carry smaller plant machinery.The same waste and recycling work, on fleets built around Marrel-type hoists.Sites and loads where the bin has to be craned rather than hooked.
