Maximize Trash Collection

Compactors are fully enclosed containers varying in size from 2 to 8 cubic yards. They utilize a mechanical blade to compact the waste and maximize the amount of materials that can be loaded into the container. Most compactor customers generate high levels of waste and benefit greatly from the maximization of space available for waste. The upfront cost of a compactor is higher; however, savings are gained due to the significantly fewer collections needed over time.
