choosing to rent compactorsWhen given the choice, which do you prefer: to rent or to buy? Obviously for smaller things, buying is better. There’s few reasons to “rent” a bicycle, for example, and you also wouldn’t “rent” a car unless you’re traveling on vacation. On the other hand, some things may not be smart to buy right away. Young couples typically don’t want to buy a house right after marriage, as renting is far more affordable on a modest budget.

You may not think about renting something like a trash compactor, but we here at KenBay believes that now is the perfect time to rent compactors. We have a wide array of incredible products, like the RotoPac, available for rent. If you’ve ever been curious about why you should rent compactors, here’s 3 great reasons to do so — today!

It Fits the Budget

If you’re a plant manager, then you’re dealing with budget concerns constantly. How much product are you producing? Are you purchasing too many supplies? Good plant managers know how to stretch a budget, but chances are they also know that you can’t get something approved that is untested. Your CFO will want to know that the compactor is a good investment before they sign off on accommodating the budget for one. Renting a compactor, however, is an easier sell because there’s no real commitment!

Prove the Cost Savings

Now, once you actually have the compactor on the premises, then your task becomes easier. Owning the compactor will help prove the cost benefits. Your superiors will be able to see for themselves how much money a good compactor will save you for waste management. Then, they’ll be much more willing to commit to buying one full-time. Where do the savings come from? For one thing, compaction allows you to fit more waste onto the shipping truck. You’ll save money on the cost of labor and hauling.

Prove the Safety Benefits

The other great thing that renting a compactor can prove is the improvements to safety. Without compactors, your waste becomes a workspace hazard. With nowhere to go, waste runs the risk of piling up on the floor. This is incredibly dangerous, because your employees can trip on it. And when you’re dealing with heavy, dangerous machinery, you definitely don’t want as few accidents as possible. By renting a compactor, you will be able to prove the improved safety for your employees. Again, it will help your superiors become more willing to commit to a full-time compactor.

As we said before, KenBay offers our own line of compactors as available for rent. But what you may not know is that we also make it easy to commit. If you choose to rent one of our compactors, you’ll see how much of a difference it makes having one around. Then, if you decide to buy one, then you can keep the one we already sent you! Simply pay the difference and bask in the joy of owning your new compactor. And KenBay compactors offer a lot of great benefits over our competitors: our RotoPacs are smaller and mobile. You can place them anywhere that’s convenient, and throw your trash away right at the source of the waste! So don’t delay, rent compactors today!
