Why a Self-Contained Trash Compactor is Good for Business

 

Self-contained trash compactors are some of the most popular types of waste compactors in industry and business use today for the many benefits they provide. Self-contained compactors help to maximize safety and cleanliness for businesses, provide cost-effective waste management, flexibility, and versatility for use across a broad range of industries. 

Self-contained compactors are different from stationary models because the container and the compactor are permanently attached as one unit. When it gets full, it is loaded onto a truck for transportation to a recycling center or a landfill.

Self-Contained Compactors Maximize Safety and Cleanliness

Self-contained compactors tightly contain trash including liquid waste for a battle for wet waste streams. Self-contained, sealed trash compactors feature a drainable sump that separates and contains liquid waste to reduce exposure to potential bacteria, an unsightly mess and foul odor. This cleaner disposal of wet waste helps to provide a more pleasant environment for businesses.

A self-contained compactor also eliminates any type of scavenging that occurs through waste bins, for a cleaner and safer environment.

Increased Durability With Low Repair Cost

Business owners enjoy a durable waste management solution with self-contained compactors which rarely break down or experience any downtime. One of the largest contributors to downtime of self-contained compactors is not a mechanical error at all, but rather a driver error that involves the hydraulic hoses. Self-contained compactors operate with hydraulic power which is powerful, efficient and safe when all protocols are followed.

When the waste hauler loads the compactor onto their truck, the hydraulic hoses must be disconnected from the hydraulic power unit prior to driving off. There are occurrences where drivers may simply forget to unhook the hydraulic hoses which can create a lot of problems with spilled hydraulic fluid on loading docks, damaged hydraulic power units or electrical panels.  There is a solution that can be incorporated to protect self-contained compactors which is a Compactor Break Away Safety System, C-BASS, developed by Stucchi, hydraulic specialists recognized worldwide.
