Atlanta Compactor Service

For high-density residential towers, major hotel complexes, and industrial distribution centers across Buckhead, Midtown, and Downtown Atlanta, managing high-volume waste streams demands industrial-grade compaction systems. GFL is your local neighbor for complete commercial compactor solutions in Fulton County. We engineer, install, and haul a full fleet of advanced equipment, including liquid-tight self-contained compactors for organic wet waste, pad-mounted stationary compactors for dry commercial refuse and cardboard, vertical impact units for tight footprints, chute-integrated apartment and high-rise systems for multi-story buildings, and heavy-duty compaction containers. Our high-efficiency systems maximize waste density, lower haul frequency, and maintain total environmental cleanliness for your facility.

GFL’s Wide Selection of Compactors at Atlanta Encompasses:

Self-Contained Compactor

These standalone compactors are designed to accommodate high volume liquid applications, discourage pests and scavengers, reduce fires, and control offensive odors from any fumes created. Self-contained compactors primarily handle wet waste and processed food. They are commonly used by restaurants, offices, schools, hospitals, grocery stores, and large factories.

Stationary Compactor

Stationary compactors are typically bolted or welded permanently to the ground for the purpose of packing waste material into a compaction trailer or container, which are subsequently disposed of or hauled to landfills to be emptied. They are primarily used for dry waste and recyclable material such as cardboard, mixed paper and plastic. This makes them ideal for large restaurants, offices, hospitals, department stores, industrial and manufacturing centers.

Vertical Impact Compactor

A vertical impact compactor, or a front-loaded vehicle service compactor, is easily emptied using a front load vehicle. They are often smaller in size, which makes them ideal for businesses operating within confined spaces. These compactors are typically designed for dry goods such as cardboard, paper, plastic, and more.

Apartment and High Rise Compactors

Apartment and highrise compactors are hand-feed operators, chute systems, or through-the-wall installations that allow for easy disposal of waste on multiple floor levels. Every compactor is designed to be conveniently loaded by residents and tenants without the need for special training. These compactors are primarily designed to take dry waste and low waste volumes, usually around 150 cubic yards or less.

Compaction Container

Compaction containers are a special type of compactor designed with a contoured end, which creates a rolling effect that allows the compactor to compress the solid waste inside the container. They are commonly used by organizations that generate an abundance of waste. Compaction containers can compact both dry and wet waste.

Looking for Trash Collection?

Roll Off

Specialty containers in a wide range of sizes to suit your construction waste and recycling needs

Dumpster

Commercial garbage compactors are perfect for businesses that dispose of large amounts of standard solid waste. They offer the convenience of a dumpster but with superior storage space, and because they compact waste into tight, condensed loads, fewer pickups are required.

Community Involvement In Atlanta

GFL believes in combining corporate success with active community stewardship throughout Atlanta. Through GFL’s Full Circle Project (FCP), we partner with local charitable organizations to fund medical research, environmental protection, and pediatric health.

Supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

GFL provides a $10,000 FCP grant under Cancer and Medical Wellness to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to curing blood cancers. The organization’s work is deeply meaningful to our ATL West branch, as one of our Sales Managers is a blood cancer survivor following a 2010 bone marrow transplant. Ten GFL employee volunteers participate in LLS’s Light The Night walk to honor patients and survivors.

Championing Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta

GFL maintains a five-year tradition of supporting Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) with a $7,500 Corporate Mascot Sponsorship. During CHOA’s annual holiday celebration on Peachtree Street, GFL showcases a real service truck alongside family activities like ice-skating, a parade, and fireworks. Eight GFL employee volunteers attend the event’s Breakfast with Santa to assist staff and guest families.

Partnering with Keep Carroll Beautiful

GFL contributes $5,000 under Nature Conservation to Keep Carroll Beautiful to fund community recycling initiatives, including paint, electronics, tire amnesty, and paper shredding events. A GFL representative serves on the charity’s board of directors, and GFL volunteers participate on-site during Household Hazardous Waste collection days and six seasonal events scheduled from April to November.
