Waste Management

Millions of tonnes of garbage are produced every year in Canada. Dealing with it as economically and sustainably as possible in limited landfill and waste disposal sites is essential. Whether you are a private landfill, a municipal waste operation or a commercial operation, you want to maximize the space you have while minimizing your environmental impact.

Several factors affect successful waste management and compaction, including:

Material type and density;
The operation itself (uphill vs. downhill); and
Condition and type of machinery used.

BOMAG compactors for every operation

Landfills only have so much air space. Utilizing air space with proper compaction will help extend the life of a landfill and increase profit potential. BOMAG refuse compactors are designed to give you excellent compaction capabilities while standing up to the extreme conditions found on landfill sites.

From 100 tons to 2,000-plus tons per day, BOMAG has a refuse compactor to handle any waste volume and help you maximize air space utilization. BOMAG manufactures 23 models of refuse compactors, ranging from the 24.3-kg, 227-kW BC 473 RB-5 to the 56.6-kg, 429-kW BC 1173 RB-5, meaning there is one right for every operation. BOMAG refuse compactors feature fuel-efficient drive systems with low fuel consumption and less pollution from engine emissions.

You can monitor BOMAG compactors’ fuel consumption and more machine data with the BOMAG TELEMATIC app for PC, iOS and Android devices that provides real-time information on operating hours, services pending and completed, location, and more.
