Benefits Of a Compactor

It’s true that a loose pile of waste will take up far more space than a compacted one, and this is where the importance of compactors comes into play. Because of the need for space conservation, the job of a compactor is to be able to take a large amount of waste, and transform it into a block much smaller. Here are a few benefits to compactors.


Less Garbage Space

A compactor is great addition due to the amount of space it can save. Loose and uncompacted trash can take up to 20 times more space than compacted, and this is important when you’re really conscious of how much space is really being taken up. In turn, waste hauling costs can be reduced as well, due to the lower amount of trips it would take to haul the waste away.

Improved Image And Sanitation

Because loose trash isn’t appealing, compacted trash at least projects the image of conscious decisions to be mindful of it all. This also gives you the opportunity to store it much easier, with no worry of loose trash getting out, and saving as many as 20 bags, in attempts to reduce the usage to one large bag. Sanitary standards are much higher, as rodents don’t typically live in compacted trash, whereas they do for uncompacted. This presents a much cleaner facility for those passing by, and for those who work in the area.

The Benefits Of Dumpster Rental

It’s no surprise that solid waste contributes to more than 35 percent of the total environmental pollution around the world. For companies that do not utilize recycling methods, the amount of waste only increases as time goes on. Did you know that companies that actively recycle their waste can apply for tax rebates and deductions through the state and federal government? If that’s not enticing enough, here are a few other benefits of renting a dumpster for waste removal.


  • A roll-off dumpster is required by all businesses. Thankfully, these containers can be segregated into collecting specific types of garbage, which can aid in moving them to a landfill, or recycling plant much more effectively.
  • Most towns won’t take certain items from a residential property. If you’re doing a large amount of renovation, you might want to check what they’ll take before setting it out on the curb. In some cases, it’s easier to just rent a dumpster and call it a day.
  • The environmental benefits are far greater than one might think. On average, 48 percent of office paper is recycled, and 73 percent of newspapers are recycled. By recycling effectively, these numbers can only go up!
  • For larger projects, a drop-off and pick-up container is typically the easiest option. As a result, you can save money by estimating your overall waste and renting the correct size container. Not only do you not have to worry about the collection of the garbage, it’s much more efficient than competing options.
  • When it comes to knowing what you can and can’t dump, waste management companies are much more aware of the regulations and requirements that are put in place by each state. We take care of the sorting process when it comes to your waste.
  • As mentioned before, tax rebates from recycling can end up cancelling out the total cost of a dumpster rental altogether. The savings from being environmentally aware prove to be not only the smart choice, but the best choice for total brand image.
