Owning your own Grit Bin and having a personal ready supply of Rock Salt can be a great advantage in severe winter weather, when public Grit Bins can be empty due to high demand or if the Council are struggling to replenish stocks of Rock Salt in Grit Bins placed on side streets, due to roads being locked with snow and ice.
This was the case in many towns throughout the UK during the severe winter of 2010/11. Throughout this winter there was a severe shortage of Rock Salt, with stocks throughout the country severely running low and councils having to cut back spreading on minor routes and many public Grit Bins were left empty.
It was at this time that UK grit bin manufacturers realised that there was a demand for Household Grit Bins, with a number of companies bringing out their own designs. These range of Grit bins in this range are small and discreet and can be bought in various colours such as Sandstone, Stone Effect and Green, to blend in with the surroundings around your garden or drive. They are lockable to prevent theft and not only ensure you can keep the areas around your home safe and free from Snow and Ice, but also enable you to buy and store Rock Salt before winter begins, when prices are at their cheapest.
In fact, in the UK, Rock Salt can triple in price throughout the winter months. It pays to have your own ready supply of Rock Salt at hand and here at gritbins.net we have on offer the largest range of Grit Bins for the home in the UK, starting from as little as £39.99.
