Every Make. Every Model.
Three Ways We Keep Your Equipment Running
Services designed to minimize downtime and reduce total ownership costs, with maintenance plans tailored to your specific needs.
Compactor & Baler Repair
Regular repair for trash compactors and balers of every make and model, performed by certified technicians who work on this equipment daily.
Preventative Maintenance
Scheduled visits that keep equipment running smoothly and catch small issues before they become costly repairs - safety, mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical.
24/7 Emergency Service
Our service technicians are available at all hours of the day and night. Emergency service is available for all makes and models.

Preventative Maintenance
Our Inspection Checklist
Each visit covers safety concerns, mechanical issues, hydraulic systems, electrical systems, and greasing of components:
- Wiring condition and electrical control panel (relays, switches)
- Container rollers, door hinges, seals, and latches
- Ground anchors, wiper blade, and drag plate
- Limit and safety switches
- Hydraulic oil pressure and oil level
- Cylinder shaft and operating pressure
Repair Is Often Far Cheaper Than Replacement
If your baler or compactor is limping along, have us look at it before you commit to a new machine - and if replacement really is the better economics, we'll tell you that too.
FAQ
Service & Repair FAQ
What makes and models of balers and compactors do you service?
Stellar Waste services and repairs balers and compactors of every make and model, regardless of where the equipment was originally purchased. Service is available to businesses nationwide, coordinated nationwide through a national partner network.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency compactor and baler repair?
Yes — Stellar Waste's baler and compactor service and repair is available 24/7. A down compactor or baler can back up an entire facility's waste flow, so call (800) 807-9845 at any hour to get a repair started.
What does preventative maintenance on a baler or compactor include?
Preventative maintenance typically includes inspecting the hydraulic system for leaks, checking oil and fluid levels, testing safety interlocks and electrical controls, and lubricating moving parts. Regular maintenance often extends equipment life and helps you avoid the cost and downtime of an emergency breakdown. Stellar Waste performs this work on every make and model of baler and compactor.
Should I repair my old compactor or replace it?
As a general rule, replacement starts to make sense when breakdowns become frequent and repair bills approach a large share of the cost of a new unit; otherwise a repair is usually the cheaper path. Because Stellar Waste both repairs every make and model and sells new equipment — vertical trash compactors from $15,500 and vertical balers from $6,500 — it can price both options so you can compare a repair quote against a replacement quote.
How do I request baler or compactor service?
Call (800) 807-9845 — the service line is available 24/7 — or email info@stellar-waste.com. Having your equipment's make, model, and a short description of the problem ready will help get a technician dispatched faster.
