We provide bin blocks in Portland, ME. Why are these blocks so special though? These blocks are specially equipped with v-wedge structures that enable each of the blocks to slide together and interlock with one another. This feature can be utilized for a variety of projects, both large scale and small. Each block has a total of four v-wedges. On both the top and side of the block, you can find a protruding v-wedge. On both the bottom and opposite side of the block, you can find an inverted v-wedge. These two opposite shaped wedges complement each other perfectly, allowing you to slide them together smoothly. In addition, these blocks also have a rebar handle loop installed on each of their tops. This loop allows you to move the blocks around without having to use complicated rigging equipment. We offer these blocks in three different sizes for the city of Portland: a 6’ x 2’ x 2’ block that weighs 3,600lbs, a 4’ x 2’ x 2’ block that weighs 2,400lbs, and a 2’ x 2’ x 2’ block that weighs 1,200lbs. When it comes to transporting these blocks, each trailer can carry up to thirteen of the 6’ blocks, eighteen of the 4’ blocks, or thirty-six of the 2’ blocks. If you have any questions or would like information about these blocks, please give us a call today! We would be more than happy to chat with you.  207-231-8551

We provide bin blocks in Portland, ME. How exactly do you receive these blocks after purchasing them? We offer two different modes of block receival: pickup or delivery. However, please note that both of these processes have a couple requirements that must be met in order for the processes to go safely and smoothly. We will go over these requirements with you below, starting with those of the pick-up process. First, you will need to give us a call. During this call, someone from our team will be more than happy to help you set up a date and time during which you can come to our facility and pick up your blocks. Second, you will need to bring along a set of chains and/or straps that can be used to secure the blocks down to the trailer. We will gladly load the blocks onto the trailer for you though, so no need to worry about that part of things. Now we will transition onto the block delivery requirements. First, you will need to make sure you have an open space of 47’-53’ available so that the delivery semi can safely enter and exit the drop off site. If you do not have access to this much open space, we can discuss dropping the blocks off at another nearby location and then using smaller equipment to transport the blocks to the actual, desired site. Second, you will need to have the proper type and size of block offloading equipment that is on-site and ready to offload the blocks once the delivery semi arrives. In order to safely offload the blocks, this equipment must be able to 1) reach a height of 7 ‘+ (because, in height, the blocks are 2’ and the trailer is 5’) and 2) withstand carrying the weight of your blocks (1,200-3,600lbs). That wraps up the delivery requirements as well. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation when it comes to these requirements. If you have any questions or concerns regarding either of these processes or requirements, please give us a call today!
