Packaderm Equipment developed a method for compacting using open top roll offs. Unlike traditional compactors where the “box” must be returned, roll offs are interchangeable, allowing haulers to drop off the new container at the time of pick up. As stated in my Bagster article, getting trucks off the road reduces costs for haulers and their customers and reduces carbon footprints.
Waste that can be “roll-packed” includes cardboard, paper, general waste, pallets/crates, steel drums, furniture, metal appliances, PET, metal cans, metal, and landscaping debris.
Since everyone loves to see things get crushed and shredded and blended, we are happy to share a video of the Roll-pak in action.
There are advantages to compacting open-top roll-offs as opposed to conventional compactors.
You pay for the compactor’s “box” to be taken and brought back after it’s emptied. Open-top roll-offs are interchangeable and exchanged during pick up.
Mammoth Roll-Pack has such a solution and has made in roads in Europe. The business end of the equipment is pretty intimidating.
