Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Revopak shopping experience:
1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Revopak offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Revopak at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.
2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about
3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Revopak? Wrong! If the Revopak is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.
4. Questions - Got a question about Revopak then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....
5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Revopak? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Revopak and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.
6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Revopak wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.
7. Feedback - happy with your Revopak then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.
8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Revopak site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

The
Revopak is a type of waste collection vehicle manufactured by the British company
Shelvoke and Drewry.
Introduced in 1971, the Revopak was in fact a British-built clone of a French Bennes-Ray
Superpac. It was among one of the first vehicles to address the problem of compacting and destroying the high content of packaging materials now found in domestic refuse.
By using a huge,
hydraulic-powered rotating rake with large steel tines, refuse was scooped up from the loading hopper and forced through a set of stationary tines. The continuous rotation of the rake progressively mangled, mutilated and compacted the refuse so as to reduce the space required to dump it at the landfill site.
Two generations of the Revopak were produced - the early 1971-1973 models used hydraulic motors which drove the compaction rake by means of chains, while the later models utilised a simpler and more robust drive system which consisted of twin synchronised
hydraulic rams to operate the compaction system. Many variations were made of the basic design, including a multitude of different body lengths and payloads, plus SD developed bin lifters as an optional extra - a precursor to the modern wheeled bin collection systems of today. One disadvantage of the system was heavier fuel consumption, since the compaction system has to run continuously in order to be effective.
The Revopak was in continuous production until 1990, when SD went out of business, although the French built clone is still manufactured by SEMAT.
