garbage compactor

Waste volume reducer

A garbage compactor is a machine that compresses trash to reduce its volume, making disposal more efficient.

Home models fit under kitchen counters and crush household waste into dense blocks.

Industrial compactors handle larger volumes at businesses, apartment buildings, and waste facilities.

The garbage compactor broke down and we had to take the trash out by hand.
