Bayhead Products Corporation

What Bayhead Products Corporation does

Bayhead Products Corporation is a private, woman-owned US manufacturer of rotationally molded (rotomolded) and injection-molded plastic material handling products, operating from a single 50,000-square-foot facility at 173 Crosby Road, Dover, New Hampshire. The company traces its origins to the early 1900s as the material handling division of Spaulding Fibre, became an independent entity in 1973, and has produced plastic carts, trucks, containers, boxes, trays, pallets, bulk bins, and barrels continuously for over 40 years. Its product portfolio is organized into six lines — Wheeled Carts & Trucks, Boxes & Trays, Pallet Containers, Pallets, Bulk Bins, and Barrels — with an extensive SKU catalog covering size capacities from roughly 4-bushel poly-bins to 700-gallon pallet containers and 60-bushel poly-trucks. The company also produces specialty legacy items such as cheerleader megaphones and replacement chairseats.

The company's technical foundation is rotational molding, supplemented by injection molding and — critically — in-house tooling design and fabrication that enables low-quantity custom production at fast turnaround. Standard products are sold under a RFQ-based quote system (phone: 1-800-Bayhead), while a "Yardsale" channel offers discounted seconds at transparent unit prices; custom molded products are manufactured to customer specifications with in-house tooling that becomes customer property upon full payment. Pricing is quote-based for standard catalog SKUs and unit-priced for Yardsale items, with gray as the standard color and FDA-compliant dry colorant available for regulated applications.

Bayhead serves industrial/manufacturing buyers as its primary segment (in-plant handling, shipping, storage, waste management, material transport), with secondary exposure to commercial laundry/hospitality (linen transport) and janitorial/cleaning services (waste collection). The go-to-market is sales-led via direct phone, email inquiry, and an online RFQ cart, with distribution executed through direct drop-shipment from the Dover facility to customers throughout the US, Canada, and Mexico on FOB terms. The company has no disclosed subsidiaries, funding rounds, partnerships, M&A activity, or named enterprise customers, and operates as an independent private corporation with a horizontal segmentation across industrial material handling end-markets.

Products and services

• Wheeled Carts & Trucks Comprehensive line of wheeled material handling equipment including tilt trucks (6 sizes, 1/3 to 3.0 cubic yards), self-dumping hoppers (5 sizes, 5/8 to 3.0 cubic yards), poly box trucks (UT series, 22 sizes), covered cases, parts bins, large capacity box trucks, chip carts, round rolling trucks (9 sizes, 30 to 440 gallons), cube/laundry trucks (38.5 cu ft), and V-trucks/cradle trucks (up to 4,000 lb capacity). Built for industrial, laundry/hospitality, and janitorial customers needing durable, maneuverable in-plant transport.
• Boxes & Trays Rotationally molded polyethylene boxes and trays for storage, shipping, and parts handling, including boxes with lids (telescoping lids), nesting boxes (50–95% nesting), stacking boxes (reverse taper), stack & nest boxes (180° turn), round stacking boxes (10" to 42" diameter), straight-sided boxes/tanks, heavy-duty rotationally molded trays, and small parts trays. Customers include manufacturers needing corrosion-resistant storage and parts organization.
• Pallet Containers Rotationally molded one-piece lightweight pallet containers in stacking, nesting, large capacity (435 to 700 gallons), and unique configurations. Built for superior strength, with models supporting forklift dumping and nesting for return logistics. Used by industrial buyers for bulk material handling.
• Pallets Rotationally molded plastic pallets — flat-top and roll (roll material) configurations — most built with double-walled construction for durability in punishing conditions. Designed for odd sizes or heavy-duty applications where standard pallets are insufficient.
• Bulk Bins Heavy-duty bulk storage containers including round bins (62 to 440 gallon seamless polyethylene tanks impervious to most chemicals), poly bins (2 bushel/15 gal to 60 bushel/570 gal, available in 8 colors), and other uniquely sized/specialized bulk containers. Used where large seamless tanks are needed for bulk material storage or transport.
• Barrels Industrial-grade rotationally molded barrels in straight-sided-with-rim (4 to 90 gallons) and tapered nesting designs (most with handles), plus barrel and drum dollies in plastic-pan or steel construction. Caters to industrial buyers needing portable, nestable drums.
• Custom-Molded Plastic Products and Tooling Bespoke plastic parts manufacturing service where Bayhead designs and fabricates tooling in-house to customer specifications, accommodating unique sizes and configurations for small-to-medium custom quantities at low cost and fast turnaround. Molds become the customer's property upon full payment of tooling charges. Buyers are manufacturers needing custom plastic parts where off-the-shelf catalog products do not fit.
• Yardsale Discounted Seconds Discounted "seconds" — rotationally molded material handling items with minor cosmetic imperfections that do not affect use or durability — sold at reduced prices (e.g., poly-bins starting at $30 for PB-4, poly-trucks from $145–$600 depending on size). Sold direct from inventory to clear cosmetic defects at a discount.

Direct peers

• Meese (Sterno) / Meese Material Handling: Direct competitor producing rotomolded bulk containers, tilt trucks, poly trucks, dollies, and recycling containers. Closest functional peer to Bayhead's wheeled carts, bins, and barrels product line.
• Buckhorn / Myers Industries Material Handling: Large-scale manufacturer of plastic bulk containers, pallets, and reusable packaging serving overlapping industrial customers. Same core product categories (pallet containers, bins, totes) but with significantly greater scale and broader distribution.
• Dura-Cast Products: Rotational molder producing plastic carts, trucks, tanks, and custom-molded products. Directly comparable on process (rotomolding), product mix (material handling containers), and customization capability.
• Akro-Mils (Myers Industries): Manufacturer of plastic storage bins, parts bins, and material handling organization products serving industrial customers. Overlap on bins, storage containers, and material handling accessories.
• Quantum Storage Systems: Manufacturer of plastic bins, totes, carts, and material handling storage products serving industrial and commercial buyers. Similar mid-market positioning with comparable bin, shelf bin, and cart SKUs.
• NewAge Products: Manufacturer of rolling carts, utility carts, and material handling equipment including plastic-bodied trucks and dollies. Direct overlap with Bayhead's wheeled carts and trucks product line for industrial and janitorial use.

Broad incumbents

• ORBIS Corporation: Large incumbent in reusable plastic bulk containers, pallets, and totes serving global supply chains. Overlaps on pallet containers and bulk bins but operates at materially greater scale with broader logistics-grade product portfolio.
• IPL Plastics: Large rotational molding and injection molding manufacturer producing bulk containers, industrial crates, and custom-molded products. Comparable on core process and end markets but operates at much larger scale.
