Buildings alone account for 38% of energy consumption in the United States. With smart design, property developers can significantly reduce energy costs while making less of an impact on the earth. For these reasons and more, sustainable design is rapidly becoming the premiere design method in the United States. In fact, it will soon be required by law.

BigBelly clearly showcases the benefit of energy efficiency. It uses the sun's energy to automatically compact waste at the point of disposal, increasing capacity to 5x that of a conventional waste receptacle within the same footprint. Its increased capacity reduces collection frequency by 80%, while its enclosed design prevents waste overflow from compromising the beauty of your property.
