When you notice you have to deal with overflow at the dumpster, it’s time to consider getting an outdoor compactor. It’s easy to order a commercial self-contained compactor and every facility that generates a large volume of waste needs one.

This includes any commercial establishment that handles food waste or any other waste, such as restaurants, supermarkets, stadiums, food courts, and institutions such as hospitals, schools and nursing homes. Compacted waste that is containerized is a much more sanitary and environmentally responsible solution to dealing with problems around dumpsters. It also reduces fire hazards and the vermin, bugs, cats and rodents that can gather around dumpsters.

Facilities that Can Utilize a Self-Contained Compator

Any place that disposes a lot of waste, such as retail stores, institutions, food or housing facilities, should utilize a convenient outdoor commercial self-contained compactor.

They are especially important for:

• Malls and shopping centers
• Department stores
• Hotels and resorts
• Medical facilities
• Office buildings
• Apartment buildings
• Marinas

All of these commercial facilities can benefit from self-contained compactors to keep their waste collection areas clean and odor-free.

Waste compactors not only look cleaner and neater than overloaded dumpsters. All the debris is compacted inside a solid container, ready for easy removal from your facility. A self-contained compactor can also help save space and increase security around office buildings and other commercial establishments and reduce pilferage.

Waste Compaction Can Result in Significant Savings

Renting a self-contained compactor is the solution to many business needs. They are essentially dumpsters with built-in compactors and come in a range of sizes and with a variety of options, such as odor control systems, which is especially important for operations that include commercial kitchens.

An even more attractive feature beyond sanitation and the aesthetics of using a waste compactor is the savings over the long haul. Loose trash and debris can take up to 20 times more space in a dumpster than compacted waste. With a compactor, waste-hauling costs can be reduced by up to half. Pickup and hauling fees are less, so check with your local waste management provider for a pick up schedule and fees to see if your operation can save on the cost of tipping fees in addition to streamlining your waste operations for safety and sanitation.

Key Takeaways:

• A self contained compactor reduces fire hazards and the vermin, bugs, cats and rodents that can gather around dumpsters.
• The fees for a self-contained compactor are less than renting a dumpster.
• More space in a compactor than a dumpster.
• Prevents waste from overflowing.
