Our equipment delivers maximum compaction, reliable uptime, and industrial-grade performance for 24/7 distribution environments. Our team will help you select the right solutions based on your waste stream, goals, and operational needs.
Built for operations generating serious cardboard and plastic film volumes. These balers integrate seamlessly with conveyors and mezzanine drop chutes for high-efficiency processing.
A smart choice for smaller work zones or lower-volume cardboard and plastic film recycling areas. They deliver dependable performance without consuming valuable floor space.
Perfect for high-volume facilities inundated with bulky packaging or wood waste. Continuous-feed operation and minimal maintenance keep your operation moving.
Designed for mixed dry waste in warehouses. These units compress material directly into roll-offs for fewer hauls and lower disposal costs.
Engineered to break down bulky materials before compaction or baling, pre-crushers improve processing efficiency and reduce equipment strain. Ideal for recycling operations handling pallets, crates, and oversized items.
Designed for operations managing wet or food waste streams. These units seal waste and liquids inside the compactor, preventing leaks, controlling odors, and reducing pest concerns—all while minimizing hauling frequency.
Real-time monitoring and data analytics help optimize equipment performance and reduce downtime through proactive insights.
Scheduled maintenance keeps your equipment running smoothly, extending its lifespan and preventing costly breakdowns.
Reliable access to genuine parts and expert service ensures fast repairs and minimal operational disruptions.
Flexible leasing, rental, and certified used equipment options provide cost-effective solutions for short-term needs or budget-conscious operations.
Distribution operations generate high-volume waste streams that accumulate quickly as products move through the door. Managing these materials efficiently is critical for safety, compliance, and cost control.
Shipping boxes and corrugated packaging dominate waste streams in any distribution center, piling up at dock doors and staging areas in a constant flow.
Plastic Film & Wrap accumulate fast in high-volume operations, taking up disproportionate floor or container space for their weight.
Broken pallets and wood debris create fire hazards, consume floor space, and tie up labor with manual breakdown.
The right waste equipment transforms your operation. Komar’s solutions are engineered for distribution environments where downtime isn’t an option and every square foot is prime real estate. Our systems handle high-volume waste streams—and can be tailored for additional materials unique to your facility—turning recyclables into revenue while cutting hauling costs and reclaiming valuable floor space.
“Our facility is a 110,000-square-foot operations center for Goodwill of Southwestern Pennsylvania. We get between 1.2 to 1.5 million pounds of material a day, and tonnage increases significantly during the summer. The Komar auger has increased daily soft trash, wood pallets, and general trash efficiency by 30% and 40% with furniture. I love to give shock-and-awe tours to show off the Komar Auger, which compacts 8.5 to 9 tons into each payload.”
Bob Kagle, Director of Retail Logistics, Goodwill of Southwestern Pennsylvania
“Since installing our Komar Auger, we have improved our operations tremendously. The auger units have reduced labor from six people down to one person, who oversees the conveyor lines and compactors. We have gone from a 2-ton payload to a 10-ton-plus payload, per 40-yard container, reducing our annual pull charges by over 75%. We have less downtime and have eliminated jams due to the slow operation of the old compactors. Best of all, we had less than a one-year return on investment.”
John Hefty, Operations Manager, GameStop
“We estimate that the Komar Auger has saved us 1,300 hours of labor per year, has reduced our hauling cost by two-thirds, and has given La-Z-Boy a safer process and more floor space.”
Troy Kvingedal, Facilities Supervisor, La-Z-Boy
“Our disposal costs have dropped, which at least covers the cost of the compactors. Aside from the monetary aspect, the compactors allow the stores to be considerably cleaner. Cleanup at night is much easier because we have no trash cluttering up the back room of the store. All in all, we are very pleased with the compactors.”
Doug Gehrig, CEO, McDonald’s of Southwest Louisiana
Horizontal balers or auger compactors with conveyor feeds handle high volumes of corrugated cardboard, keeping material flowing without bottlenecks or manual intervention.
Yes. We design systems specifically for mezzanine integration, chute-fed setups, and centralized collection points to streamline waste handling.
Automated systems eliminate continuous bin trips and manual handling, saving your team hours every shift and redirecting labor toward more productive work.
Many facilities generate enough baled film to sell as a recyclable commodity material, turning disposal costs into revenue streams.
Our auger and pre-crusher compactors process wood debris into compacted waste, reducing fire hazards, freeing up space, and lowering disposal expenses.
Yes. Our equipment, for example, auger compactors and pre-crushers, securely destroy your waste, floor clutter and fire load, helping you meet OSHA requirements while reducing injury risks.
Yes. Our equipment, in particular auger compactors and pre-crushers, securely destroys unsellable or sensitive products to protect your brand and meet compliance requirements.
We recommend semi-annual preventive maintenance for most logistics operations to ensure optimized uptime and reliability.
Vertical balers work well in tight indoor spaces. Augers and compactors are great solutions because the equipment is typically placed outside in a dock door. This equipment is engineered to handle high material volumes without eating up valuable floor space.
It depends on your goals. To maximize recycling rebates, keep materials separate. If you just need mixed waste disposal, our compactors can handle both. Balers are for recyclables only, and wet waste should go in a self-contained or auger compactor.
Yes. We provide flexible financing plans, leasing programs, and rental options to help you manage capital costs while upgrading your waste handling systems.
Yes. Our vertical and horizontal balers (excluding auto-tie horizontal balers) are designed to separately handle multiple recycling streams while maximizing material resale value.
We are a waste solutions company. With a wide array of application-specific models and advanced engineering capabilities, we look forward to guiding you to the best solution for the job.
