Trash Compactor : A Neat Solution for Families

Sometimes the neatest solutions are right under your nose...those everyday things that you take for granted. The trash compactor is one of those. I do not know if I can ever live without this "unnoticeable" appliance...and I certainly don't know how any one with more then 2 people living in the household can manage without one. Basically, it can cut trash volume by about 75% with a compactor. REALLY! This saves enormous amounts of time and saves on space in your waste receptacle. It is small, quiet, "non-smelly" (except on fish day). Lowes has a nice buying guide online with more info about how to choose the right model for you. They range in price from $450-$800. I think ours was on the low end of this scale and it has worked fine. The best news is that we have never spent extra money on the special compactor bags. We use regular old Glad bags and have not had a problem. So for a neat solution for trash...consider this option.
