ABSTRACT An apparatus for compacting compressible waste such as cardboard, cartons, wood refuse, domestic garbage or the like should be designed in such a way that the garbage is reliably conveyed at specific uniform intervals into a receiving container or the like and that during the conveying process odour problems due to the conveyed waste cannot occur. According to the invention, this is made possible by providing a rotatably driven cylindrical drum which is mounted in a housing having a substantially vertical material feed and a material discharge channel and having a chute of square or rectangular cross-section, symmetrical to the drum, which penetrates into the drum from its casing and which serves to mount a cross-sectionally fitting compacting piston, which has two partially cylindrical surfaces, opposite one another, the radii of which correspond to the radius of the drum and the distance between the cylindrical surfaces being smaller than the diameter of the drum, two flat surfaces which are opposite one another are provided between the surfaces, the distance between the two flat surfaces being likewise smaller than the diameter of the drum wherein the compacting piston has, in a plane which is vertical to the axis of the drum, an elongated hole like guide which is inclined with respect to the chute and of which the ends point, in the direction of rotation of the drum, toward the trailing connecting edges between the partially cylindrical and the flat surfaces of the drum, wherein a fixed pivot engages the guide, the axis of the guide being in the vertical median plane through the drum and the exterior diameter corresponds to the distance between the two straight surfaces of the guide, wherein the pivot is offset in downward direction below the horizontal median plane through the drum, and is thereby directed toward the discharge channel.
