GTS 2000 Indoor Compactor
The ever-increasing cost of waste disposal is frustrating to
those who own and operate a restaurant. Trash bills inexplicably rise from
month-to-month, haulers charge unreasonable fees, and it seems as though every
month, the check you write to the waste hauler is larger than the month before.
The good news is that you can take control of these costs by making some basic
changes in how you deal with waste. One option is employing the use of a GTS 2000 indoor trash compactor.
Indoor compactors result in fewer weekly pick-ups.
Your trash hauler should only come to your restaurant when
you need them—when the dumpster is full. Every time you see their big truck out
in your parking lot, they are charging you. Indoor compactors have the power to
compress up to twenty individual bags of trash into a single brick, which can be
transported to the dumpster with ease. This creates up to twenty times more
space in your dumpster, and in turn, leads to fewer pickups. In some cases, an
operator can realize savings of up to 60% on waste expenses by simply
compacting their garbage before throwing it in the dumpster.
Compactors result in reduced parking lot disruption.
Having the trash picked up can cause business disruptions. Garbage
trucks are large, noisy, dirty, and get in the way of everything. They have
been known to block incoming and outgoing traffic and block the drive-thru.
They can drive off customers and frustrate employees by taking up parking
spaces while they work. A compactor will reduce the overall number of trash pick-ups
and, in turn, reduce the potential for a cluttered lot or lost business in the
midst of a lunch or dinner rush.
Compactors reduce the opportunity for work related injury.
Winter weather creates a slip and fall hazard for employees.
Ice, snow, and rain can cause even the most careful worker to go down in the
parking lot. Eventually, employees must venture out into the harsh weather to
take out the garbage. When they do, there is always the risk of a work related
injury. Compactors reduce the number of outdoor trips because the trash stays
contained within the compactor until it is full. Instead of eight or ten trips,
employees may only need to exit the building once or twice. A compactor will keep
your employees inside, where it is safe and dry.
