Would waste machinery make financial sense?
Start with what your current waste setup costs. Add proposed equipment and running costs to compare the options. Unknown figures stay unknown: this calculator does not assume a saving or force a positive result.
1. Your current setup
Decimals are fine: 0.5 means one collection every two weeks.
Use your current contractor charge. Include other separate charges below.
Optional: separate disposal, container hire or handling costs. Zero means excluded.
2. Add proposed costs when you know them
No quote yet? Leave these blank and ask MHM to help. You do not need to complete the calculator to make an enquiry.
Use a realistic proposed schedule, not a machine compaction ratio.
A different container or collection vehicle may have a different charge.
Rental or finance payment where applicable. Enter 0 only when there is none.
Include applicable energy, servicing, consumables, handling and separate disposal charges.
Purchase or deposit, delivery, installation and accessories, as applicable. Avoid counting the same purchase cost twice when comparing finance.
Optional. Zero is assumed unless you enter an estimate; no recycling price is supplied by this tool.

A saving cannot be estimated yet
Enter the proposed collection costs, equipment payments, running costs and upfront cost to calculate a comparison. Enter zero for costs that genuinely do not apply; leave unknown costs blank.
Uses 52 weeks and 12 monthly payments per year. All rates and collection schedules are your inputs, not MHM quotations. No automatic link is assumed between volume reduction and collection savings. Compare like-for-like costs and use a consistent VAT basis. Tax effects, changes in prices, finance schedules and residual values are not modelled; final suitability and savings require review.
Your figures will be carried into the enquiry form for you to review. Nothing is submitted by using the calculator.
