1,616 divided by 50 gal).ī ) TYPICAL VOLUME REDUCTION CAPABILITIES OF TRASH COMPACTORS 202 x 8) this means that, if full, an 8-yard dumpster would hold roughly 30 of the 50 gallon bags (or 50 of the 30 gallon bags etc) of loose, non-compacted waste. Since an 8-yard dumpster is the equivalent of approximately 1,616 gallons of capacity (i.e. the equivalent of 4 of the 50-gallon bags of loose, non-compacted waste) will fit into each cubic yard of dumpster space. Some basics are as follows:Īn average of approximately 200 gallons of trash (i.e. Since trash profiles can vary considerably within the same industry (and even within the same exact market segment) the compaction benefits derived from trash compactors will also vary accordingly. It is fairly logical that waste streams or trash profiles with the highest air content achieve the highest benefits from compaction. The typical volume capacity, density and other characteristics of wastes vary from industry to industry and location to location within an industry. HOW MUCH LOOSE AND COMPACTED WASTE FITS INTO A DUMPSTER Therefore, an 8-yd dumpster will hold 1,616 gallons of capacity when totallyĢ. 1 cubic yd (of dumpster space) equals 202 gallons of capacity. Gallon equals 231 cubic inches of capacity (i.e., of dumpster space) is composed of 46,656 cubic inches.
