As a business owner, you are always looking for ways to reduce costs and increase profits. You have probably combed through most of your operational expenses and found ways to do more with less. One of the last things that you may have considered as a cost savings is a waste disposal system or waste compactor. Not only does a trash compactor help you to dispose of trash safely, efficiently, and in a earth-friendly manner, there are real financial and operational benefits as well.
5 Reasons you should Buy a Commercial Waste Compactor Now
1. Enhance your company’s green efforts. By more efficiently managing the trash inside your company, you will be stepping up your environmental efforts, which will get noticed by staff and customers as well. Today’s companies are expected to be green. It’s great PR and helps set the tone for your business’ brand and identity as a leader in sustainability and environmental stewardship.
2. Save space. Compacting your trash makes it less bulky and easier to dispose of. Harmony compactors crush your trash into smaller, more manageable cubes or bales. Un-compacted trash can take up precious space that could be used for other equipment or processes. Did you know that most waste compactors reduce your trash footprint by a minimum ratio of 4:1, while some, like Harmony’s P200 Vertical Compactor have an incredible 7.5:1 compaction ratio!
3. There is a trash compactor suitable for your unique situation. Harmony Enterprises has widest range of waste and recycling equipment, such as indoor compactors, space-saving vertical compactors, stationary compactors, and self-contained compactors. We have compactors that are suitable for many different spaces and applications. These can be fed in a variety of compactor configurations, including ground fed, chute fed, with hoppers, tippers, conveyors, with dog houses, and more!
4. Save money in fuel, time, and transportation. When you use a waste compactor, you can reduce the amount of trips needed to haul to the dump or landfill, saving fuel and labor costs. Not only that, fewer hauls to the landfill means reduced carbon emissions from hauling trucks emitted into our atmosphere. Who can’t support that?
5. Reduce the problems that come with external dumpsters. External dumpsters can lead to many problems such as employee safety, employee pilferage, or misuse of the dumpster by neighbors or passerbys. A trash compactor minimizes accidental spills or the wind catching trash that can happen with traditional dumpsters. Loose trash can also create more problems with smells and varmints. Many cities have started enforcing more strict regulations and citations related to external trash dumpsters. It might be a good idea to research your local codes and see how a trash compactor might help protect your business from unnecessary fines.
Smaller Compactors
Commercial trash compactors are used by a wide range of customers. Smaller versions, called the SmartPack Automatic Trash Compactor, are even replacing the standard trash can in airports, quick service restaurants, and cafeterias. Business owners have realized there is huge cost saving opportunities with a quality waste disposal system – from their waste hauling bills, to reduced labor, and increasing productivity and business operations.
