Some choose a Static Compactor that come in different sizes. Generally the RORO is closed. In brief, you feed material into the hopper and the machine compresses the material into the RORO. After the RORO is full, we exchange the container, take the waste back to one of our waste transfer stations for treatment.
Others have a portable compactor, in this case you can have a range of 2 – 12 tonnes. Usually these containers are leak proof so most suitable for wet general waste produces. Our service takes the entire container away each time and replaces it with an empty one.
