Waste Press
A waste press from MHM UK LTD is one of the most cost-effective investments a business can make to manage its waste. By pressing general and industrial waste by up to 5:1, a waste press reduces collection frequency, lowers transport and disposal costs, and keeps your site cleaner and more compliant.
Our range includes static waste presses for permanent, high-throughput installations and portable waste presses for flexible, leak-proof operation. Whether you're a factory, distribution centre, retail store, hotel, or waste management company, we have a waste press to match your volume, space, and waste type.
Every MHM waste press is manufactured in the UK with heavy-duty components and is compatible with Cloud4Waste telemetry for real-time fill-level monitoring, so collections only happen when they're genuinely needed.

Waste Press FAQs
A waste press is a machine that compresses general or industrial waste into a smaller volume using hydraulic pressure, reducing collection frequency and disposal costs. MHM offers both static waste presses for permanent installations and portable waste presses for flexible, leak-proof operation.
A baler produces tied, sellable bales from dry recyclables like cardboard and plastic—ideal for generating recycling revenue. A waste press reduces the volume of general or mixed waste for cheaper disposal. For dry recyclables, a baler is usually best; for general or wet waste, a waste press is more suitable.
Our waste presses reduce general and industrial waste volume by up to 5:1, meaning five times as much waste fits into the same container. This dramatically cuts collection frequency and disposal costs, with most businesses seeing a rapid return on investment.
