With a self-contained compactor, the compactor and receiver box stay permanently joined for compaction and emptying, minimizing leakage. If your business disposes of food waste, wet waste, or granulated materials that could leak when separating a container from the compactor, then you should consider a self-contained compactor.
Self-contained compactors come in a large variety of shapes, sizes, and compaction power. These machines are designed to store and transport wet wastes. Compactors reduce commercial waste cost by cutting down on the number of times the container needs to be hauled.

Flex-D-Vider®
Creates two variable capacity compartments
The DRC II has a total capacity of 28 cubic yards (21 cubic meters). The two variable capacity compartments are separated by a 24" (609,6 mm) high solid welded barrier. This wall prevents liquid leaking from one side to the other. The DRC II accepts and compacts unequal and unpredictable volumes of two separate discardables. This is made possible by Waste Equipment's patented Flex-D-Vider, a pivoting steel wall that adjusts the compartments’ capacity during the loading and packing process. For the easier discharge of the materials in the smaller compartment, a hydraulic cylinder enables the operator to move the Flex-D-Vider to the vertical center of the container, relieving the pressure on the remaining waste or recyclables. When loaded, each compartment can represent as little as 30% or as much as 70% of the unit’s total volume. The DRC II can also be chute-fed to increase customer security and reduce labor costs.
Four individual doors for controlled discharge of compacted materia
Due to the many variable positions in which the Flex-D Vider can be located, four individual doors are used for the discharge of materials.
-
Upper doors are top hinged and have ratchet locks that enable the door to be opened independently of the lower doors
-
Lower doors are hinged in the center of the container. Each door is equipped with Waste Equipment’s standard ratchet latch and open independently for controlled discharge of compacted material
-
For wet-waste applications, an optional door gasket is available with Marathon’s custom designed P-shaped door seal, developed specially for self-contained compactors used for wet waste. Either or both sides may be gasketed
Qwik Clean Tank®
The Qwik Clean Tank® with exclusive Trash Check™ is a standard feature on the DRC II. It funnels any liquid seepage occurring during compaction into an enclosed area underneath the charge box floor. The liquid is automatically discharged at the disposal site, in effect flushing the container and the area behind the ram.
Cycon Cyclic Control System
-
Standard on all DRC Compactors
-
Reliable, solid-state circuitry eliminates all pressure and limit switches
-
CYCON’s no-shock cycle control extends cylinder and hose wear life
-
Automatic “container-full assurance system” means the ram remains against the load at full pressure, resulting in better compaction
-
Smoother running, quieter operation
-
The advanced hydraulic design enables the system to operate at minimum pressure levels until the need for more pressure is automatically sensed
-
More accurate advanced warning or container-full options
-
Dramatically improved cold weather performance
100 Self Contained Compactor
Waste Equipment's 100 Self Contained self-contained compactors make handling wet waste simple. It's easy to load from both the ground and dock levels, and a hopper can be used to double or triple the loading capacity. Waste can be fed continuously while the unit is cycling.
The 100 Self Contained Compactor Series compactor boasts more than 22 tons (19,958 kg) of crushing power that will reduce your refuse to a fraction of its original size. The universal double-end pickup and dock-friendly design make this compactor ideal for dock-fed applications. Other features include fire hose connections on each unit, hinge grease fittings, and ground and guide rollers.
These Compactor Benefits include:
-
Large 35" x 60" feed opening to handle bulky items
Continuous feed capability, even while compactor is operating -
Adaptable to special loading systems such as large-capacity hoppers, security chutes or total enclosures
-
Total odor and pest control via our Ozone Odor Control option

The 100 Self Contained Compactor is UL® Listed
P Seal
The P-shaped door seal is specially designed for portable compaction containers to provide a superior watertight closure. The mounting is engineered for quick and easy installation when replacement is necessary, requiring no field fitting, cutting, or welding.
Double-hinge With Bronze Brushing
Every 100 series compactor comes standard with a watertight seal that is fully tested prior to leaving the factory. Liquid retention is ensured by the Waste Equipment Double-Hinge. It creates uniform seal compression while eliminating the seal “scrubbing” and damage so often encountered with competitive designs. The Double-Hinge also saves expensive driver and truck time because only one easy-to-operate ratchet makes it work.
Bubble Gate And Auto Relatc
The innovative “Bubble Gate” adds a full cubic yard to container capacity. Superior compaction ratios result from its special curved shape. These two unique benefits reduce costs of disposal. The ultimate in latch systems, Waste Equipment’s “Auto Relatch” eliminates the need to hold the door while operating the latch ratchet. This design enables the operator to use both hands on the ratchet.

Also Available As Green Built®
Waste Equipment is committed to providing waste compaction solutions that meet the global sustainability needs of our customers. With each new product, we have made measurable strides in reducing energy and fuel consumption while continuing to offer superior product performance.
Our line of Green Built® solar and solar-hybrid compactors is a first in the industry. The 100% solar-powered models compact refuse using the power of the sun for true independence from the power grid and its associated costs. The solar-hybrid models connect to the power grid as a backup that automatically switches when necessary. When in solar mode, the compactor uses no AC power. When in hybrid mode, the compactor uses much less energy than conventional power units. The batteries recover as the compactor continues to be available for operation.
Our 225 Ultra Stationary Compactors are state-of-the-art in roll-off compactors, featuring oversized feed openings and expanded container storage capacity.

The 88 Self-Contained Series compactor is factory tested and certified to be free from leaks. With standard double-end pickup (except for HT models), the 88 series can be loaded for hauling from either end. This is especially useful if installed perpendicular to a dock. The compactor is built into the same door through which the compacted refuse is later emptied, eliminating the need for the additional space needed for the time-consuming double “turn-around” maneuver required for conventional self-contained models.
