Trash Compactors for Apartment Complexes

Chute-fed and outdoor compactors that keep trash rooms and enclosures clean while cutting how often trash is hauled.

The Waste Challenge

An apartment complex produces trash every hour of the day, and residents notice immediately when it overflows. Open dumpsters fill fast, attract pests and illegal dumping, and need frequent pickups.

Compaction fixes the volume problem. Chute-fed compactors handle mid-rise and high-rise buildings from the trash room, and outdoor self-contained compactors serve garden-style communities from a central enclosure. On a rental, we handle all maintenance and repairs.

Common Challenges

  • Overflowing dumpsters and trash rooms
  • Odors, pests and resident complaints
  • Frequent hauls raising operating costs
  • Illegal dumping in open containers
  • Old compactors with rising repair bills

Apartment Complexes FAQ

What kind of compactor does an apartment complex need?

Buildings with trash chutes use a chute-fed compactor in the trash room. Garden-style communities without chutes usually use a sealed, self-contained compactor in a central enclosure.

Will a compactor reduce our trash hauling costs?

Usually. Compacted trash takes up far less space, so it is hauled less often than loose trash in open dumpsters.

Does a compactor help with pests and odors?

Yes. Sealed compactors keep waste and liquids contained, which limits odors and access for pests.

Our community already owns an old compactor. What can we do?

Our Trade-In Program makes a cash offer on existing equipment, then rents equipment back to you with maintenance included. We also offer a maintenance program for equipment you keep.
