"In addition to the dramatic increase in capacity provided by the units, the enclosed design keeps litter in the receptacles - not overflowing onto the streets. This is a great example of business, area residents, and the City working in concert and in everyone's best interests." - Jonathan Gilula, VP Business Operations, Boston Red Sox

Thousands of guests are entertained at stadiums, zoos and amusement parks every day. With heavy foot traffic in a contained area, keeping current with waste collection is often very challenging. Crowds often cause receptacles to overflow, resulting in unsightly litter that can detract from the visitor experience. In order to present a clean facility, personnel often must empty waste receptacles five times a day or more, which adds to park congestion, creates safety issues, and wastes valuable time and money.

BigBelly provides a solution. By using the sun's energy to automatically compact waste at the point of disposal, BigBelly increases capacity to 5 times that of a conventional waste receptacle with the same footprint. In addition to reducing the frequency and costs of waste collection by 80%, BigBelly eliminates waste overflow that compromises the guest experience. The enclosed unit keeps unpleasant and unsightly litter hidden from guests during peak periods and at food courts and heavy traffic locations.

Unlike conventional bulky waste receptacles, BigBelly has a sleek appearance that complements existing park furniture. It comes in customizable colors, has several recycling options, and can be tailored to mirror any branding scheme or promotional effort.
