LP 4848 Low Profile Stationary Compactors (LoPro)

Designed for space restrictive applications such as underground parking areas, Metro Compactor’s LoPro LP4848 container can fit in compact areas with limited overhead spaces. These high volume, stationary compaction units reduce servicing and operational costs while enhancing worker safety.

Eliminating the need for costs associated with staging the equipment for service or requiring pull-out fees for garbage collection, the LP4848 is the ideal solution for high rise apartment and condominium complexes.

A critical safety feature of this equipment is the FEED DOOR INTERLOCK – the equipment will not operate if the feed door is not shut. The interlock will immediately engage to run the machine once the compactor door closes.
