Frequently Asked Questions About Mobile Waste Compaction in Pueblo, CO
Smash My Trash utilizes a proprietary mobile compaction truck, our Smash Truck, to visit your facility or jobsite and compact all sorts of commercial waste within open-top roll-off dumpsters. A highly trained operator safely compacts your trash and frees up valuable dumpster space, all in about 15 minutes.
This process:
- Compacts bulky waste including pallets, packaging, and cardboard
