What Easyquip does

Easyquip Pty Ltd is an Australian designer and manufacturer of industrial waste handling equipment, founded in 1993 by Greg Beer and headquartered in Morwell, Victoria. The company operates two manufacturing facilities — Morwell VIC and Heathwood QLD — employing more than 60 people and producing a unified platform of front-lift bins, hook-lift bins, compactor receiver bins, fork-lift bins, crane bins and Marell skip bins. Its compactor line, built around a patented Auger Drive System with sealed-for-life planetary gearbox and direct drive, includes stationary, transportable and twin-auger variants as well as blade compactors. Product differentiators include the Easylid and Prop-A-Lid plastic lid systems and in-house hydraulic hook-lift bin lids available in manual, electric and solar-powered variants, alongside Hardox/Bisalloy 450-grade wear-plate upgrades for high-impact applications. As of February 2022 the company had produced 61,391 bins cumulatively.

The company sells primarily through a sales-led, quote-based go-to-market motion targeting enterprise waste-management operators, local councils and industrial customers. Pricing is on a per-job basis with 14-day payment terms, reflecting exposure to volatile steel input costs. Direct sales are conducted via phone (1300 797 543), email enquiry, website quote-request forms and in-person consultation at the manufacturing sites, supported by an extensive freight network delivering throughout eastern Australia including Tasmania, South Australia and the Northern Territory. Marketing channels are modest and organic: a Waste Management Review feature, plus Facebook and LinkedIn pages and a content-marketing blog on easyquip.com.au — there is no app, no dealer network and no disclosed AI/digital product layer.

Named enterprise customers include the three dominant Australian waste-management operators — Cleanaway, Veolia and Suez — together with Corio Waste Management as a showcased reference account. The local-government and council segment is also a stated focus, with documented custom tenders for City of Monash (e-waste hook-lift bins with hydraulic lids) and South Gippsland Shire Council (glass-recycling hook-lift bins). Other served segments include supermarkets and chain stores, manufacturing facilities and construction companies. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; Easyquip is a privately held, founder-controlled company with no external institutional investors, no subsidiaries and no M&A activity on record.
