Waste Consulting for Los Angeles’ Growing Garbage Issues

If you own a business or income property in the city of Los Angeles how can you be certain that you are handling your waste and recycling needs the best possible way? In today’s increasingly specialized marketplaces it is important to know who to call when it comes to making decisions in regards to your garbage issues. 

Walking through the neighborhoods of LA it is readily apparent that there are garbage problems with truck tires, couches and paper littering city streets. Recently, City Councilman Gil Cedilla has launched a $1 million plan aimed at cleaning up some of the city’s worst affected areas but what does this due to help small business owners? Not much.

Global Trash Solutions, the nation’s fastest growing waste consulting firm, operates in every Southern California City and we understand the markets there. Our clients in Los Angeles have become dependent upon our services as we uncover savings opportunities that many times have gone unlooked by the business owner or manager for years. This isn’t due to lack of diligence; it speaks more to our knowledge base and expertise than anything else. 


Global Trash Solutions focuses on holistic approaches aimed at specific site locations. This allows us to make recommendations and solutions that are customized to the unique properties and their marketplace. A fast food restaurant located in downtown LA will have completely different needs than say a fast food restaurant just down the road in East LA. The waste markets in Southern California are just as diverse as the people who inhabit the area with open markets and franchised cities many times side by side each other. This is why it is important to call a company that can help you to navigate these very specialized situations. In the past you probably just picked up the phone and called your local garbageman for advice. This is akin to calling an opposing attorney in a lawsuit asking questions on how best to settle the case. Our consulting program offers an upfront free audit to evaluate your current garbage situation so why wouldn’t you call us today? There is a good chance we are already representing your neighbor and can offer valuable insight into how we can improve your bottom line and protect you against increases. Call us today at (866) 760-8194.

Buying a Used Trash Compactor

used trash compactors
Reducing waste and saving money are major concerns for most businesses world wide. We know that reducing the amount of trash reduces the waste hauling cost, and it helps protect our landfills and the environment. Trash is not a subject that is usually first on any business owners to-do-list.

Owners and operators need to investigate before deciding on either a new or used compactor; they need to make the unknown – known.  Some questions you may be asking yourself are -- do we need a compactor?  How much waste are we generating?  What size and type do we need?  Do we need a indoor or outdoor compactor?  Who will be the hauler? Do we have a choice, or it is franchised? (one hauler must be used)  Do we have the capital to either purchase new or used?  What is our return on investment?  The list goes on and on, along with the anxiety.

used trash compactorToday, business owners look for the "best deal" - price and quality of product are the primary factors in making a solid business decision. Buying new equipment is usually the first choice, but it's not always reality. Purchasing a used compactor can save a business owner substantial amounts of money. A used compactor allows companies with small budgets to reduce their investment, minimizing the risk and burden on their cash flow.

A used compactor will provide many other advantages such as diminishing the cost of transportation trash to the disposal site, saves labor, keeps away unwanted pests, controls odor, creates a better work environment, saves customer parking spaces, reduces fire hazards which saves on insurance cost, stops others from using your compactor for their trash disposal, and it helps stop pilferage.  For information on how Global Trash Solutions can help you save money with our industrial used trash compactor contact us at 1-800-760-8194.

Industrial Trash Compactors: What you Need to Know

industrial trash compactor
Industrial trash compactors help large manufacturing facilities and a variety of other businesses get the most out of their dumpsters. Some manufacturing facilities get many shipments of raw materials per day that are delivered in cardboard containers. These facilities would be well-advised to purchase a cardboard baler to take care of the left over packaging. Balers are available in both horizontal and vertical models. They compact cardboard into large cubes that weigh upwards of 1 ton. These cardboard cubes are loaded onto pallets and can be sold.

Facilities that have waste that is difficult to compact such as furniture, drums, or pallets should look into pre-crushers. Pre-crushers break down these bulky items into manageable sizes and then pack them into a dumpster unit. Pre-crushers are also used by some facilities to destroy merchandise and prevent scavenging. They work by pushing a compaction plate into a gate located in the compaction chamber. Once the materials are broken apart, the gate is raised and the materials are pushed into the container that the trash hauler can dump. Other types of industrial trash compactors include vertical compactors, indoor compactors, self-contained compactors, and X-press pack compactors.

Since there are so many types of compactors available on the market, it is important for businesses to consult with someone who really knows what they are talking about with regard to compaction equipment. It can be tempting to accept “free” or rental compaction equipment from trash haulers, but this is often a mistake because haulers build the price of the equipment into their profit margin and it can be costly to remove and install their equipment if you decide to change companies. Equipment supplied by waste haulers may have also been used and recirculated several times so that the compaction ratios are not as high as they should be. Global Trash Solutions offers holistic answers to all kinds of trash problems. We will evaluate your waste stream and provide you with your best options.  Call us at: 877-367-5495

There Could be Money in your Waste Management Dumpster

In today’s tough economic climate, businesses everywhere are trying to do more with less. Many companies are hiring internal or external auditing teams to turn their business upside down and look for any way possible to cut operating costs. One area that is often overlooked on the P & L statement is that of trash service. Business owners do not typically look at their waste management dumpster and see dollar signs, even though they may see green. However, more and more businesses every month are learning firsthand the value of investigating cost-savings in the area of trash disposal.

Trash service is the only unregulated utility left. There are a variety of ways to save money on trash service. Arguably the easiest way to save is by recycling as much as possible to avoid throwing items such as cardboard in your waste management dumpster. Some businesses can save as much as 20% off their monthly bill just by getting a second dumpster in there corral for cardboard. If there is no room, many cities allow the cardboard containers to sit outside the corral whereas a garbage dumpster would have to be enclosed. Municipalities allow this because they want to encourage recycling.

While recycling is the most obvious and eco-friendly way to save on trash service every month, hiring a waste consultant such as Global Trash Solutions can have a greater financial impact than recycling alone. GTS is well-versed in uncovering substantial amounts of revenue in your trash can. We earn our living by developing creative and innovative ways to cut businesses garbage expenses. We do this by utilizing the latest technology and taking a scientific approach to waste removal. We provide holistic solutions to our clients waste management problems. If you are looking for ways to make your business more profitable, please call us today so we can get to work on lowering your waste expenses.

Waste Management Solutions: Paving the way to a Greener Future

waste management
In recent years there has been a lot of buzz about the environment and what people and companies can do to become more eco-friendly. So much energy and time goes into running a business that many business owners are “in the dark” when it comes to working out the details of waste management solutions that will help their business and benefit the environment. There are several reasons why businesses should consider taking a closer look at what goes in the trash and making more of an effort to divert recyclables from their waste stream.

The most obvious reason a business that is aiming to be as profitable as possible should look into green waste management solutions is the effect it will have on their operating costs. It is always less costly to have haulers remove recyclables such as glass, plastic, aluminum, and corrugated cardboard than it is to have these items hauled away as trash. It usually costs about 1/3 as much to recycle, and when the market is good sometimes businesses can even get rebates for these items.  25 states offer some type of tax incentive for recycling (You can read more about the tax incentives here: http://www.epa.gov/wastes/conserve/tools/rmd/bizasst/tax-ince.htm).

Sometimes business owners are so busy running their operation that it makes sense to outsource waste and recycling processes to an expert such as Global Trash Solutions. At GTS, we work tirelessly to uncover recycling opportunities for our clients wherever possible. We have implemented single-stream recycling (that is glass, plastic, aluminum, and cardboard all going in the same can) and organics recycling (food and plant waste) for many of our clients. We prefer to divert as much waste as possible from landfills as it is green and cost-effective! Some of our clients have diverted as much as 75% of their waste from landfills.
