Available in mobile, single-bay, and multi-bay models, our German-engineered Roll Packers deliver reliable, high-performance waste compaction tailored to your operation.


Roll Packers

Roll Packers utilise a rolling drum or wheel to compact waste. This rolling action effectively crushes and compacts the waste within a container or compaction chamber. Many businesses value them for their manoeuvrability and high waste density levels.

Multi-bin roll packer system with rail-mounted compaction. Ideal for large sites managing cardboard, pallets, or up to 10 open-top bins.

The Bergmann RPM7700 Mobile Roll Packer is a mobile solution that compacts waste directly in open bins. Available in diesel and electric models for efficient, mobile waste compaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Roll Packer is a heavy-duty waste compaction system designed to process bulky, low-density waste materials directly into a skip bin or hook lift container.

The system uses a large rotating steel drum fitted with hardened crushing teeth. As the drum rotates over the waste, it breaks down and compacts bulky materials such as timber crates, pallets, cardboard cores, and industrial packaging waste. This process significantly increases the amount of material that can fit into a single bin while reducing air space and improving transport efficiency.

Key benefits include:

  • Reduced waste volume
  • Fewer waste collections
  • Lower transport costs
  • Improved site cleanliness
  • Reduced manual handling
  • Better use of floor space
  • Improved operational efficiency

Compaction results vary depending on the material, but Roll Packers can achieve compaction ratios of up to 4:1 on suitable bulky waste streams.

Regardless of what you may think when you first see a Roll Packer drum, the definitive answer from all our customers is YES.
