Let Harmony Figure Your Baler ROI!
In these uncertain economic times, many investors are reluctant to buy anything. Their knee-jerk reaction to the market downturn is to sell to avoid additional losses. The same can be true for business owners who are reluctant to purchase needed waste or recycling equipment, hoping for better rates or financial certainty. For both demographics, now is actually be the best time to buy. And, for those needing a recycling baler or trash compactor, Harmony can help figure the ROI on your new equipment, ensuring that your investment makes sense for your business!
Recycling Baler ROI’s
Even though today’s market news may look stagnant, some commodities prices are at record highs. This is certainly true for many recyclable commodities. That means that recyclers are paying big bucks for things like aluminum and OCC. If you are throwing these by-products away, you are actually losing money twice. First, you are spending money on the cost of having it hauled away from your business, and secondly, by not benefitting from the value of the products themselves. In essence, you are paying for someone else to earn your recycling money!
Baled aluminum cans, known as UBC’s have continued to rise in value. They are up 70% year over year the past few years. OCC, or corrugated cardboard is also up nearly 60% in the past year and a half. Many other valuable products can be recycled at near record prices, making this the time to buy a baler or compactor, or at least find out how quickly you can pay one off and earn pure profit.
Harmony’s professional sales team offers free quotes and site reviews. They can also help you figure the ROI on your next baler or compactor to make sure its the right equipment and financial decision for your operations. They will talk with you and consider the following information when providing the ROI:
- Type of commodity being recycled
- Market value of that recyclable commodity
- Desired size of bales being produced
- Desired weights of bales being produced
- Volume and frequency of bales being produced and recycled
- Best equipment solution for your business, cost, lead time, efficiency, and longevity
- Additional requirements for equipment implementation, including electrical service, loading options, etc.
Trash Compactor ROI’s
Although industrial balers are used to capture recycling revenue, there is definitely cost savings that can be achieved through the purchase of an indoor or outdoor trash compactor.
Compactors reduce your business’ waste footprint, allowing your staff or haulers to manage waste less frequently, while improving the customer experience.
They also allow you to spend less on odor, vermin control, or pilferage.
If you use a traditional open top dumpster, you already pay as much as 75% more for additional hauling services than if you used a compactor. Given the increase in fuel costs, you can bet that you will be paying even more for each pull of your waste.
Indoor compactors provide similar savings, too. In a time of staff shortages, you don’t need your teams checking on or emptying partially full cans that hold 1/10th of what an indoor compactor would. Indoor compactors allow your staff to do more important tasks, while providing savings on accessories like trash bags, as well as space in your compactor or dumpster once hauled outside.
To figure your compactor ROI, our sales team will consider:
- Type of waste and wet or dry
- Volume of waste
- Weight of waste
- Customer facing or rear-facing operations
- Loading method of waste
- How your hauler can remove waste
- If monitoring systems will help provide even more efficiency
- Best equipment solution for your business, cost, lead time, efficiency, and longevity
- Additional requirements for equipment implementation, including electrical service, loading options, etc.
