Our team is trained to handle dangerous, nasty and potentially biohazardous situations. Clogs require professionals that can safely remove the clog without damage to the property or injury to your staff.
- Damage to the lining of the trash chute, causing trash to snag
- Large trash or furniture lodged in the chute – we've seen chairs
- Failure of automatic compaction system
- Lack of staff training regarding operation of
the compactor
Lateral forces on the chute column from the weight of a clog put additional stress into the anchor points that keep the chute vertically aligned. Severely clogged chutes will become dislocated as the weight exceeds the lateral design capacity, and will cause intake door separation and other issues requiring repair.
Clogs can be silently hide between levels in a chute, going unnoticed, waiting to dislodge at any moment even when all of the intake doors are locked. Clog removal risks include exposure to trash and fall and drop hazards – our professionals are equipped to do the job safely.
Garbage bags and trash inside a clogged chute will compress as weight is added from above. This weight squeezes trash juices from the bags, which flows down the wall of the chute and onto the compactor or dumpster below.
