Overview
A pre-crusher compactor crushes material inside its own chamber before pushing it into the container. That extra step breaks down bulky, oversized waste such as pallets, furniture, fixtures and product slated for destruction.
The result is maximum density in every container and fewer hauls. It is the right choice for high-volume operations dealing with difficult material streams that leave too much air in a standard compactor load.

|---|---|
| Benefit | Higher container density and fewer hauls |
| Containers | Works with detachable receiver containers |
| Power | Three-phase electric; confirmed at site survey |
| Site needs | Concrete pad, anchoring and roll-off truck access |

A standard compactor pushes waste into the container. A pre-crusher first crushes it against a steel gate, which breaks down bulky items and packs much more weight into each load.
Pallets, crates, furniture, fixtures and other oversized dry waste, as well as product that must be destroyed before disposal.
It usually does when your waste is bulky. Denser loads mean the container is hauled less often.
