The Model 520SS Container Packer is specially designed to fit into very small trash rooms where a standard machine won’t fit. It is a fully automatic, hydraulically operated packer which packs into a front or rear load compaction container. The machine body, sides and top are 1/4″ steel plate. The ram face is 3/8″ steel plate. Header bar is 5″ x 5″ x 1/2″ steel angle.

The hopper is constructed of 11 ga. steel plate with a 1/4″ back plate to take the impact of falling refuse. The Model 520SS comes equipped with a 1 HP power unit. An industrial stationary container packer typically installed in multi-story buildings, this machines compacts trash received from a trash chute and compacts into two cubic yard front or rear load compaction containers.

The machine operates automatically by an electric eye, providing unattended operation until the container is full at which time it is removed from the machine and wheeled outside for pickup. This system reduces handling of waste and requires less custodial attention, translating into cost savings for owners and property managers. Also, because the volume of trash is significantly reduced during compaction, fewer pickups by the hauler are required, cutting disposal costs.

The Model 520 Series Trash Compactors are normally installed in street level trash rooms and used in conjunction with a trash chute system in high-rise buildings. Operation is automatic, with the unit being activated by an electric eye which senses trash in the loading hopper. These units are typically used with two cubic yard compaction containers which, when full, are wheeled outside for pick-up by a commercial trash service. The unit automatically shuts down when the container is full.
