ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a compacting apparatus for waste, glass, and plastic. The present invention compresses such objects in order to simplify both the recycling and disposal processes. Objects placed in a box within the apparatus are compressed by a flat surface perpendicularly attached to a vertical shaft. This shaft is pressed downward by a conventional hydraulic system installed in the top of the apparatus. One box is provided with heat-producing coils installed within its walls for softening hard plastic and PVC. Another box without heat-producing coils is provided for crushing glass and waste. A cutting device is provided for cutting objects too large to fit inside the box.
