MEASURING FOR DRUM LINERS
-
Width = (the circumference of the drum divided by 2) + 2”. It is easiest to use a flexible tape measure and measure around the widest part of the drum.
-
Length = (height of the drum + the width [diameter]) + 4”.
-
The extra 4” provides the extra material to fold over or tie the bag.
MEASURING FOR BOX LINERS
-
Width = (the circumference of the box divided by 2) + 2”. The circumference equals the sum of the length of each side. Length = 1⁄2 the narrow width + the height of the box.
-
Add 5” to 8” extra material for fold over or tie off.
MEASURING FOR PALLET COVERS
-
Width = (the circumference of the pallet divided by 2) + 4”. The circumference equals the sum of the length of each side. Length = (1/2 the narrow width of the load + the height
-
of the load) + 2”.
