Power Knot LLC, the market leader in onsite organic waste management solutions, announced today that Vital Records Control (VRC) has deployed scores of SBT-360 bin tippers across its facilities throughout the United States. The adoption marks a significant operational upgrade for one of the nation’s leading secure information management companies.
VRC, headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, services over 200 markets across the United States and needed a scalable, reliable bin tipping solution after its previous equipment manufacturer ceased production, leaving facilities without parts, technical support, or a path to expand capacity.
The SBT-360 bin tipper addressed each of those gaps directly. Unlike the stationary units VRC previously relied on, the SBT-360 is fully mobile and battery-powered, enabling staff to bring the machine to the workload rather than the reverse. Most notably, it is compact and agile enough to be used inside a truck, allowing for high-efficiency loading when retrieving documents for off-site destruction.
“VRC operates at a scale that demands consistency and flexibility across every location,” said Iain Milnes, President of Power Knot. “The SBT-360 bin tipper was designed precisely for that kind of environment. It is mobile, simple to operate, and backed by a manufacturer committed to long-term support. We are proud to be part of VRC’s infrastructure nationwide.”
The SBT-360 has become one of the first tasks taught to new hires at VRC, allowing them to become productive members of the team almost immediately. With a 20 second tipping cycle, the deployment has delivered a reported 3x productivity improvement and 100% safety compliance across facilities.
By transitioning from stationary, unsupported equipment to a mobile solution supported by a US manufacturer, VRC improved operational efficiency, restored scalability, and enhanced its ability to deliver secure data destruction services across both facility and field environments.
