Packers are the actual pieces of equipment within a garbage truck that crushes and compacts collected waste. This ensures there is enough space within the garbage truck to collect as much waste as possible before dumping. Packers are available in different sizes depending on the type of garbage truck in your fleet. You can also find necessary assembly components and parts for packers at Wastebuilt® as well. This includes items such as scrapers, wipers, filters, and wear bars. The scrapers and wipers keep the packers as clean as possible so compaction remains efficient. Filters are designed to remove possible loose debris or particles from entering hydraulic components within the garbage truck. Meanwhile, wear bars can be placed on the top and bottom of a packer to provide extra protection during the compacting process. Everything is tested out by Wastebuilt® to ensure they are reliable, functional, and consistent.
