A 60 litre yellow grit bin providing a dedicated storage point for up to 65 kg of grit or de-icing salt. Its capacity suits locations where a useful winter treatment supply needs to remain close at hand.
The 60 Litre Yellow Grit Bin provides a dedicated 60 litre / 65 kg storage point for grit or de-icing salt. Its 5 kg empty weight and H 450 × W 500 × D 470 mm size suit locations where winter treatment material needs to be kept close to paths, entrances, driveways or parking areas.
Where You Should Position
Position the grit bin on firm, level ground reasonably close to the surfaces most likely to need winter treatment. Entrances, paths, driveways and parking areas are practical locations where nearby storage can reduce the distance grit or salt needs to be carried. Allow enough surrounding space to access the contents comfortably without narrowing pedestrian or vehicle routes.
What You Can Expect After Siting
A well-chosen position gives you a dedicated local supply of winter treatment material rather than relying on grit or salt stored elsewhere on the premises. The bin itself does not treat icy surfaces, so stock levels and ground conditions still need to be monitored.
✅ Less carrying distance: locating the supply close to likely treatment areas can make grit or salt quicker to collect when conditions deteriorate.
✅ Dedicated storage: the 60 litre capacity keeps winter treatment material in an identifiable container rather than mixed with general stored items.
✅ Useful local reserve: the stated 65 kg capacity provides a substantial quantity of treatment material at the point where it may be required.

Size and Handling
Allowing sufficient space
✅ Allow for the H 450 × W 500 × D 470 mm footprint before selecting the final position.
✅ Leave enough working space to reach the stored grit or salt without standing in a traffic route.
❌ Do not squeeze the bin into a position where it restricts a doorway, path or vehicle movement.

Handling the bin safely
✅ Where practical, choose the final position while the 5 kg bin is empty and easier to handle.
❌ Do not assume the 5 kg empty weight represents the handling weight once grit or salt has been added.
❌ Avoid unnecessary repositioning once the bin contains a substantial quantity of material.

Keeping access practical
✅ Keep the approach to the bin clear so treatment material can be reached when required.
✅ Check remaining contents periodically during periods of freezing weather.
❌ Do not allow vehicles, stored equipment or other objects to block routine access to the bin.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Yellow Grit Salt Bin 60 Litre Capacity designed to hold? It provides dedicated storage for grit or de-icing salt, with a stated capacity of 60 litres or 65 kg.How much space should I allow for the grit bin? The bin measures H 450 × W 500 × D 470 mm. Allow additional working space around the chosen position so the contents can be reached without obstructing nearby routes.
Where should a 60 litre grit bin be positioned? Choose firm, level ground close to paths, entrances, driveways, parking areas or other surfaces that are likely to require winter treatment.
Is the 5 kg weight the same as the weight when the bin is full? No. The stated product weight is 5 kg, while the bin can hold substantially more material, so handling becomes very different once grit or salt has been added.
Does keeping a grit bin nearby remove the need to check icy surfaces? No. The bin provides accessible storage only. You still need to monitor conditions, maintain sufficient stock and decide when treatment is required.

Related Grit Bin Options
For very localised treatment around a small entrance or path, the Mini Grit Bin Kit combines compact storage with salt and a scoop.
If mobility is more useful than a fixed storage point, compare the 75 litre mobile grit bin for a space-conscious alternative.
For a higher-capacity supply at the same general scale, the 100 litre grit and salt bin gives you more material close to the treatment area.
Further sizes can be compared in the main grit and salt bins range before you decide how much capacity you actually need.
