Meet our small but mighty compactor

Recorra’s new compactor, ‘The Hubb’

In the waste management industry, innovation is the key to efficient and sustainable operations. Enter the Hubb compactor: a small but mighty compactor that redefines waste compaction for businesses with smaller loading bays.

What is a compactor?

A compactor is used to compress and reduce the size of waste material, making them easier to store, transport, and then dispose of. A compactor is often used by businesses who produce large volumes of waste such as hotels, shopping centres, commercial office buildings, hospitals and many more. Traditional compactors take the space of several 1100L bins, and have therefore traditionally only been suitable for sites with large or outside loading bays, until now…

Why is the Hubb compactor different?

The Hubb compactor distinguishes itself through its impressive combination of miniature size but high capacity. Unlike standard compactors that often require significant space, the Hubb compactor takes up only the equivalent of six 1100L bins (yes you read that right). This is in comparison to a traditional compactor, which takes up the space of sometimes up to 12 bins. Despite its small footprint, it boasts the ability to compact a massive 3 tonnes of waste.

What are the benefits?

1. Space efficiency. One of the standout features of the Hubb compactor is its ability to fit into tight spaces, fitting 6 x 1100L bins. This makes it an ideal choice for locations where space is at a premium, such as businesses with smaller loading bays and limited storage areas.
2. High capacity. Don’t let its size fool you- the Hubb compactor can handle large volumes of waste (the equivalent of 30 1100L bins), making it suitable for businesses that generate significant waste.
3. Reduced vehicle movements. By compacting a large amount of waste into a smaller area, the Hubb compactor helps reduce the number of vehicle movements required to collect waste. This not only lowers transportation costs but also minimises the environmental impact associated with frequent waste pickups. Less collections means less carbon emissions, and improved air quality in urban areas. The Hubb could be an important part of your business’ carbon reduction journey!
4. Clean and clear loading bays. Say goodbye to overflowing bins! With the Hubb compactor, waste is kept contained in a small space, reducing the risk of overflow, and maintaining a cleaner, more organised waste storage area.

These features make the Hubb compactor a perfect fit for businesses producing large quantities of waste but with limited space. Its efficiency and compact size can significantly improve daily waste operations.

“The Hubb compactor has already revolutionised the waste management process for some of our customers, drastically reducing collection frequency and cost, whilst keeping waste areas cleaner and more organised.” – Jim Hubbard, Director of Strategic Partnerships
