Waste management in San Diego poses significant challenges. With the city expanding rapidly and construction sites constantly active, traditional waste disposal methods often fail to keep up. Dumpsters overflow, waste hauls become frequent and expensive, and improper disposal leads to environmental hazards and potential regulatory fines. The cost and environmental impact of transporting waste across the city add to the problem. Our Roll Off Compactor San Diego addresses these issues head-on by compressing waste into smaller, manageable sizes.
This compression not only reduces the frequency of waste hauls—saving businesses thousands in transportation and landfill costs—but also helps manage waste on-site, keeping things more organized and environmentally friendly. Our compactors are designed for efficiency, meaning businesses can streamline waste processes and spend less time worrying about compliance with city waste laws. In a place like San Diego, where eco-consciousness and regulations are top priorities, using a reliable waste management system is crucial.

Dear Mr. Markle,
I have been working in the Plant Operations of Hospitals for the past 20 years. During that time I have had the responsibility of maintaining various autoclaves for the treatment of biohazardous medical waste.
When I came to Doctors Medical Center a year and a half ago I found myself in charge of maintaining a Mark-Costello Co. autoclave that was nearly eight years old. After my past experience of trying to keep a high vacuum system with consistent problems in operation, I find maintaining the Mark-Costello gravity fed autoclave a pleasure, as there is seldom a malfunction. I attribute this to the fact they have kept the design simple with no need for highly technical maintenance and high dollar repair parts.
As a point of information, the Model we operate is a AS 512 equipped with a unique “pull out drawer” making it easy for the Housekeeping Staff to load. This unit has a capacity of approximately 750 lbs. per cycle.
We expect to keep our Mark-Costello autoclave in operation for another 8 years or longer !
Dear Mr. Markle:
San Ramon regional Medical Center has owned and operated a Model AS46 Mark-Costello Medical Waste Sterilizer for the past eight years. We are pleased with performance of this equipment and have had a fine working relationship with the Mark-Costello Company. The system continues to function well and allows our facility to avoid the liability and high cost of packaging and hauling untreated infectious waste.
We Anticipate several more years of operation from this waste treatment system

Pleased with the equipment
We are quite pleased with our Mark-Costello sterilizer. The sterilizer has been working fine for many years. We recently purchased additional equipment from them, and are impressed with their response time and friendly service. We hope to continue a great working relationship with Mark-Costello in the future for additional pieces of equipment.
“It’s been a great relationship with The Mark-Costello Company; they are very dependable to all of our waste handling requirements and have made us aware of the importance of recycling and the upcoming waste handling issues in the future.”
“We have been very pleased with the performance and the cost savings that the trash compactors from The Mark-Costello Company have provided to our school district.”
My name is David E. and I am responsible for a Mark Costello Co. Auto-Clave, at an inflight Kitchen out here in Kona Hawaii, that is overseen by the USDA / Custom and Borders, federal inspectors. (as you can imagine that is a challenge in its self).
The products that Mark Costello Co. is producing are of good quality. The auto – clave that I am responsible for works 24/7, with very few break downs. This is the only unit available in Kona, making daily operation is critical.
It is nice to know that when I call for tech support and parts, the courteous staff always responds promptly. Being out here in the middle of the pacific, that is crucial to our operation.
I would highly recommend Mark Costello Co.
A roll-off compactor is a heavy-duty waste management solution designed to compact trash within a roll-off container. It helps reduce the volume of waste, allowing for more efficient disposal and fewer trips to the landfill, saving both time and money.
San Diego businesses and construction sites can benefit from roll-off compactors because they provide a cost-effective way to manage large volumes of waste. They improve efficiency, reduce the number of pickups needed, and minimize the environmental impact by compacting trash.
Roll-off compactors generally need a space large enough to accommodate both the compactor and the container. Typically, a clear area of at least 20 feet in length and 8 feet in width is needed for safe and efficient operation.
Yes, roll-off compactors can handle a variety of waste types, including general construction debris, recyclables, and commercial waste. However, specific materials such as hazardous waste or certain chemicals may require specialized disposal methods.
The frequency of emptying your roll-off compactor depends on how much waste you produce and the size of the container. Since compactors reduce waste volume, they typically require fewer pickups compared to standard waste containers.
Regular maintenance is important to ensure the roll-off compactor operates smoothly. This includes checking for mechanical issues, cleaning the compactor, and ensuring that the compaction mechanism is functioning properly. Routine maintenance can help prevent costly repairs and downtime.
