TL;DR: For a commercial lot, the affordable choice is the lowest cost per year, not the lowest price per piece. Cost is driven by linear feet, profile height, anchors for asphalt or concrete, and signs and markings. Savings usually come from measuring correctly and standardizing one profile across sites. Losses usually come from wrong anchors and parts that crack or come loose. LT Plastics, an authorized Bonar Plastics distributor based in Phoenix, AZ, supplies HDPE bulk containers, hoppers, tanks and speed bumps to US plants.
