    What is a waste compactor?

    A waste compactor, is, as the name suggests, a machine that compacts waste. They are large and heavy-duty machines that can take mixed waste in large quantities – several tons at a time – and compress them into a smaller and more contained amounts.

    The compactor consists of a press unit and a container unit. The press unit compacts the waste horizontally into the container. When the compactor is full, it is picked up by a waste collector. Depending on the material, it is then transported to a recycling station or an incineration facility. Compactors are available in a range of sizes and varieties depending on the type of material and the amount and volume of waste the machine will be processing.

    What type of waste material can I put in a compactor?

    That depends on the compactor. As a rule of thumb, you can use a compactor to compact all soft materials. Examples of soft materials include cardboard, shredded paper, news paper, paper bags, soft dry plastic, and PET bottles.

    There are also compactors for wet waste, polystyrene, EPS, and wood.

    We always recommend that you consult with us if you wish to use your compactor for any other materials than the listed and recommended materials.
