The pickup point is where, we at Daka meet your production and our daily cooperation takes its basis. Having a good collectionsspace means that we at Daka SecAnim can collect your dead animals as fast, effective and gentle as possibl. Read along, and get our tips for a well-arranged collectionspace.
First and foremost you ought to arrange your collectionspace, which facilitate an environment that prevent unnecessary decay. If it is impossible, then place the collectionspace in the shadow. Place the animals on a firm, raised foundation, such as furrows made of concrete. Make sure that the animals are correctly covered, so that they are effectively protected aginst necrophagous animals. That way you can secure that the animals is installed in a dry and protected way. You can also secure ventilation for the animalt by making a bores in the top of your cadaver cover.
The access road and the space around your collectionspace should first and foremost be available for trucks up to 40 ton. There must be space for a turn or a opportunity for thoroughfare. Make sure to keep the space free for other equipment, and remember that our driver under no circumstances must reverse to a public road. Should the space be placed along a road, there need to be space for other cars to pass the truck, while it collects.
Even though your collectionspace must be discreetly placed and perferably with a barrier around, it is also important that the barrier is not to high (max 140 cm.) on the side, where the truck collects your animals. It is necessary that the truck is able to park on the left side of the collectionspace, given that the driver must be able to see, what he is doing on the platform in the left side og the truck.
When the driver has a good overview, it is possible for him to do his work as gentle and secure as possible.

- that the piglet container is undamaged and the cap is able to close
