Accessories for towing 660L and 1100L bins
Directional lock tabs for steering
Warning: Never tow with four swivel castors.
Towing bins with four swivel castors will cause problems with trailing and 'fishtailing'–cutting corners, rather than following the unit.
For safety purposes, directional lock tabs are fitted to your bin's existing rear swivel castors to enable controlled steering and towing in a straight line.
