One of the most common questions that clients ask us is if they should purchase a vertical baler or invest in horizontal baling equipment to take care of their recyclable waste. To put it simply, vertical balers use a downward force to compress relatively light materials like cardboard, foam, and soft plastics. They can process a lot of the same waste materials that horizontal balers can, too.
Consider these reasons for getting a vertical garbage compactor:
Takes Up Minimal Space
If you have limited space for a baler, a vertical machine is ideal for you. They’re perfect for commercial establishments like pharmacies, supermarkets, retail stores, and distribution centers as well as for amusement and hospitality venues. Alternatively, you may opt for a larger vertical baler when your workspace has extra ceiling height but not too much floor space.
Note: If you are interested in getting a vertical baler for your commercial or industrial facility, take the doorway opening and vertical clearance into consideration. Make sure that the machine fits inside the building.
Caters to Various Types of Waste
Vertical balers might cater to lower waste volume at a time but that doesn’t mean they process less types of materials than horizontal balers do. They can cater to a wide range of recyclable materials, from office paper to plastic containers to non-ferrous metals. Our team can help you determine the right baler model for your needs. Whether you need a vertical cardboard compactor or an all-around vertical baler, our staff is available to attend to your concerns and recommend the best equipment for your business.
Costs Less than Horizontal Balers
Vertical balers generally cost less than horizontal balers do. So if you run a small business or if you generate small quantities of recyclable waste, you can save up on operational costs by choosing a vertical baler. The same goes for our rental balers, which you might consider if you’re interested in having no maintenance costs.
Makes Recycling Easy to Do
Given that vertical recycling baler equipment is present in places, such as grocery outlets and retail establishments, manufacturers have made these machines easy to operate. As a matter of fact, all our vertical baler models are simple to use.
