Bluestreak Equipment offers a variety of landfill magnets that can prevent damages from metal debris at landfill sites. Magnetic equipment for landfills come in many forms and are necessary to keep nails, bolts, screws and other metal from disrupting business.
Magnets for landfill cleanup can be mounted to the front of vehicles, in the center, or towed behind. Choosing the best magnet for your landfill comes down to how severe the problem is, what vehicles are available to do the sweeping, and the surface you are sweeping on will decide whether you need a magnet with a debris digging rake to dislodge metal that is stuck in the dirt or gravel.
Keeping magnetic sweepers operating on regular schedules around landfills lowers operational costs and ensures a safe environment for workers and customers.

Available in 1 sweeper width: Yacare 72″
Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…
The Yacare magnetic sweeper is a 72 inch wide, durable off road tow behind magnetic sweeper with an easy to use Spring Assisted Clean Off system and torsion ride suspension that smooths out rough terrain!
The Yacare clean off system is entirely different from both the HOG and RHINO. It replaces the Quick Clean Off Sleeve system with an easier to use, more durable long term solution that's especially helpful for heavy debris conditions.
More power and advanced durability provided by all steel and stainless steel construction and easy effortless clean off with dual debris release levers provide sound rationale to move up from the Rhino to the Yacare.
Yet the Yacare keeps all the features that makes the Rhino so popular; the pick up performance in off road conditions provided by the "wrap around" design, the adjustable sweep height, flat proof tires, adjustable hitch height and optional debris digging rake accessory. The suspension system also increases towability of the Yacare magnet through rough terrain, reducing strain on the chassis of the sweeper and tow vehicle.
Replacing the safety flags on the Rhino are the RED colored lid and “MAGNETIC SWEEPER” signage on the back of the Yacare unit, to ensure that high visibility is maintained.
This thing is built like a tank! Check out the CAD drawings.

Available in 1 sweeper width: Caiman 82″
Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…
The Caiman magnetic sweeper is one step up from the Yacare magnetic sweeper.
It is like the Yacare because it has an enclosed magnet and Dual Spring Assisted Debris Release Handles, but it's wider at 82 inch wide and has much more power with 50% more magnets.
More power and wider sweeping width makes it a good choice for towing behind pickup trucks, larger tractors and UTVs such as John Deere Gators, Kubota side by sides, etc.
The Caiman also has solid pick up performance in off road conditions provided by the "wrap around" design, the adjustable sweep height, flat proof tires, adjustable hitch height and optional debris digging rake accessory. The torsion ride suspension system increases control in rough terrain and reduces stress on the sweeper and tow vehicle’s chassis.

The Nyx Heavy Duty Hanging Magnetic Sweeper is built to endure heavy duty terrain while clearing metal debris. An Aluminum quick clean off sleeve protects the magnet housing from impacts and crush forces and allows debris to be removed from the magnetic field quickly and easily.
The Nyx also features 10.5” x 3.25” inch Carlisle flat free wheels with UHMW bushings replacing standard ball bearings for greater impact resistance and smooth operation. These wheels will touch down on terrain changes before the clean off sleeve so the Nyx can glide over obstacles rather than strike the ground.
A 4.5” x 4.5” inch permanently charged C8 magnet housing allows the Nyx to pull a 2.5” inch 8 penny nail from up to 8.25” inches off the ground. So, in the 3”-5” inch recommended sweeping height range the Nyx has plenty of pick up power to retrieve metal debris regardless of terrain requirements. The Nyx attaches easily to many different vehicles using the included chains; making it a versatile and durable tool for clearing debris in rough environments.

The Erebus also has 10.5 “ x 3.25” Carlisle flat free bump wheels that allow the magnet to roll over changing terrain rather than hit the aluminum clean off sleeve off the ground. The wheel bearings have been replaced with custom 5/8” UHMW bushings that can withstand greater impacts and roll smoothly.
From recycling centers to highway maintenance, the Erebus is a heavy duty durable magnet with exceptional pickup power. It can pick up a 2.5” 8 penny nail from 8.25” off the ground, so in the recommended sweeping height range of 3-5” there is plenty of power available to collect metal debris. The aluminum clean off sleeve resists crush forces that normally make clean off sleeves difficult to remove and slides easily on PVC rails inside the aluminum sleeve that prevent friction.
The Erebus can be easily mounted on a Bluestreak Equipment hanging bracket or by using the included chains with quick links. A hanging magnet mounts easily on a variety of vehicles and is a versatile tool for keeping job sites clean and safe for personnel and equipment.

No one needs to manually handle the metal debris, which increases safety and efficiency.
The Sokoke also has the capability to accept the Debris Digging Rake accessory, this allows an operator to dig up debris that may be embedded under the surface after being runover by heavy machinery so it can be collected. The rakes also allow an operator to have a clear visual indicator of where they have swept while grooming the land, creating a more uniform surface.

Landfill debris problems are perhaps the largest of any applications. It’s not hard to imagine how roads leading to landfills and the landfill roads and scales are covered in debris such as construction debris, wires, old roof shingles and nails, screws etc.
The largest problem presented by this debris are the flat tires it causes on trucks delivering garbage to the landfill and the vehicles of the landfill itself. The large garbage trucks have many wheels and they are expensive to repair and in the process trucks experience downtime and schedule disruptions. Most of the time these big tires don’t go flat immediately, they get damaged at the landfill and go flat or need fixing later.
Most landfills have to repair tires at least several times a week on their own tires, let alone tire repairs that landfill visitors get that the landfill may never know about or bear the cost for.
Given this situation, the metal debris problem at landfills is considered high and the need for controlling it is high due to the high cost of damaged tires.
The cost of flat tires are real and borne by real people and real businesses and are a huge unnecessary waste and cost that can be prevented with a simple tool… a magnetic sweeper.
Even the costs that are borne by the landfills for tire repairs are enough to allow a very quick payback period on the purchase of a magnetic sweeper.
It may not seem like a dump or landfill needs to think about customer satisfaction or about flat tires that visitors experience while using the landfill, but this should indeed be the case. Businesses and individuals using the landfill are the landfill’s customers and landfill customers clearly have an expectation and need to use the landfill without getting tire damage.
