Portable WASTE Compactors
Portable waste compactors are one of the most cost-effective ways to reduce bulky waste volumes on site, cutting collection frequencies and lowering disposal costs.
Our portable compactor range, with wide ranging container capacities, is engineered to handle everything from dry cardboard and plastics through to wet and mixed commercial waste. Thanks to features like the patented throw-over blade and pendulum roof, these machines deliver exceptional compaction ratios while making emptying faster, cleaner and simpler than traditional designs allow.
-
- Huge loading aperture
- Bin with pendulum roof for trouble-free emptying
- High compaction force due to linear arrangement of cylinders
- Press plate guiding system with 100% compaction force over the full stroke length
- Laterally fastened door with 3 central locks via easy-to-serve ratchet catch
- Pendulum claws on the break edge and the large immersion depth of the compacting piston avoid that the waste streams backwards
-
- Smaller Portable Compactor, transported via skip lift (chain lift)
- Container capacity ranges from 8-12m³
- Can be supplied with an integrated bin lift if required
-
- A larger machine which transported via a roll-on/roll-off (hook lift) vehicle

Why Choose a Portable Waste Compactor?
- No cleaning required behind or below the blade
- Greater usable container volume
- Reduced maintenance time and cost
- Improved hygiene, particularly when handling food-contaminated packaging or wet waste
Pendulum Roof for Effortless Emptying
Selected models feature a pendulum roof that swings upwards when the discharge door is opened. It is a simple mechanism, but a highly effective one: compacted material slides out cleanly in a single movement, avoiding the blockages and half-emptied containers that plague less sophisticated machines.
A Size for Every Operation
Container capacities across the portable compactor range run from 8m³ up to 22m³, covering everything from smaller retail units and distribution centres through to high-volume manufacturing and logistics sites. Whether you are compacting dry cardboard, mixed plastics, general commercial waste or wet organic material, there is a Kenburn model configured to match your waste stream and throughput. Every machine in the range is built to commercial and industrial specifications, designed for long service life with minimal downtime.

Ideal Applications
Our portable waste compactors are well suited to:
- Retail distribution centres and supermarkets
- Manufacturing and production facilities
- Warehousing and logistics hubs
- Food processing and hospitality sites (wet waste models)
- Paper, cardboard and plastics recycling operations
If you generate regular volumes of compactible waste and want to reduce collection frequencies, a portable compactor will almost certainly pay for itself in haulage savings alone.
