compactors
Garbage volume reducers
Compactors are machines that compress material into smaller, denser form.
Trash compactors crush household garbage to reduce volume.
Industrial compactors handle construction debris or recyclables.
Soil compactors—heavy rollers or vibrating plates—pack earth for foundations and roadbeds.
The landfill runs compactors over the garbage daily.
