i run a small business here and occasionally generate extra trash.


anyone have a compactor? are you happy? i never had one of these, but
oddly enough have room for it in the kitchen


It was one of those bad ideas of the 70's. Few people really want an
immovable object that smells like a landfill.


If it smells you aren't putting the right things in it. Meat,
vegetable and fruit trash needs to be put in a garbage can outside the
house.


If you want something cool, get an automatic compost maker. :-)
