Dumpster compactor. Smash my trash!

[@watkinsjames82]

How much for a foot of extra space? Doesn't look Cheap and doesn't look worth the extra money

[@samiam7]

Yes I would agree. Unless you had a bunch of cardboard or stuff that grinds good. This had some mattresses in it. They did not grind too good lol

[@1alexmm858]

How manny trash cans you have to smash a day , do you have a time limit???? This is very interesting first time looking at this ..thumbs up👍👍

[@samiam7]

This was a service we hired them to do for us. I would say he was there maybe 30 mins tops. It decreased our dumpster volume by 1/3 I estimate.

[@gabrielrendon1197]

How much

[@samiam7]

@@gabrielrendon1197 I think its was in the neighborhood of $150. I know the first time is free though www.smashmytrash.com/

[@stephencullen5780]

Looks like it flattened it 1 foot at most

[@samiam7]

Yes something like that

[@oompa164]

Saw an ad for this franchise. Never seen it in person.

[@samiam7]

Its pretty impressive. This one had some mattresses in it so it wasn't as good as it normally does

[@coreylane1]

I’d be afraid that would bust the walls of the dumpster out. Who pays for the dumpster repairs? Neat idea though.

[@samiam7]

Dumpsters are pretty tough, I've seen them take some seriously direct abuse, as opposed to this, which is closer to pressure. All the same,, I'm not sure it would be worth the money, I'm on the fence. Thanks for watching

[@nickhearn7288]

Of course the smashing company would pay for dumpster repairs…. That’s why they work it down nice and easy.

[@johnrfranklin9072]

Good operator will not harm the dumpster period. He would have to purposely be trying to destroy the dumpster for that to happen...all in the operators hands.

[@led8541]

This is a first for me very cool

[@samiam7]

Thank you!

[@stevemma1]

It makes a mess who picks that up? What do the dumpster company’s say? Do they try to fight them for damages to the dumpster?

[@samiam7]

@@stevemma1 that was the only one I had any experience with. Didn't have any problems

[@joemagalhaes2421]

Be nice if they came half way the. When full seems it can only break up so deep when full

[@samiam7]

I think this was a bad example. Somebody threw a couple mattresses in there and they didn't break down good. I think if you had a bunch of cardboard etc it would work a treat

[@patioex]

must be cheaper to just bring in a new bin no?

[@samiam7]

Well, it depends. I think if you had alot of cardboard and wood, it would break down alot better. This one had a couple mattresses some yehoo threw in it

[@trentonbuckley9055]

@@samiam7 You're right. Can't do anything with mattress

[@samiam7]

@@trentonbuckley9055 yeah, it just chews and chews and chews and never goes anywhere.

[@VancouverCanucksRock]

The thing needs the be designed differently, in order to actually shred the sh++ at a higher speed.

[@samiam7]

That might help. There was some material in it like a couple mattresses that I think didn't showcase it great. If you had a bunch of lumber etc it would have done better. Worth the money? Probably not, in my opinion

[@VancouverCanucksRock]

@@samiam7 I could see it getting it done in 5 minites, and also reducing the volume by 50%. I'd say that's worth it

[@samiam7]

@@VancouverCanucksRock I meant is it worth it as is. I would say it reduced volume by 1/3. If you did half that would be real nice.

[@georgeemcclainjr1595]

so if your the dumpster company you just lost money because you expect to dump and return it now it might be a removal your making money off the back of the dumpster company who now only rents the dumpster once and not multiple times for that customer

[@samiam7]

It really doesn't compact that much. If you had alot of wood and stuff that breaks down easy you might get 1/3 more space. It gives you a little more room. Just my guess from the one time I seen it in action

[@re8746]

Not what its cracked up to be. The more weight in the roll off, the more expensive it is to dispose of. And the more weight in the box, you will pay an overage fee. Or if its to heavy, you have to unload it as it is illegal to haul a roll off over a certain weight. And damage the roll off? You, the one who rented it pays for the repair. Avoid this service.

[@samiam7]

Probably wise

[@mattborski9752]

I think it's really stupid I drove a roll-off truck is it overweight I just take it back let them deal with it

[@samiam7]

To be honest I don't know much about it. Just was watching it go down one day

[@garyhenry2546]

Not Worth it

[@samiam7]

Agreed

[@terrimitchell3008]

Lol

[@SuperReallyNice]

Meh, won't work on plastics.

[@samiam7]

Probably. It didn't do exceptionally on the mattresses that was in there. But if you had general construction trash, would be great

[@jeremykoepsell]

Stupid idea
