Abstract of the Disclosure A refuse compacting apparatus having a container for storing refuse under pressure, a loading hopper, and a passage leading from the hopper into the container. A narrowed throat in the passage is positioned at a point intermediate that of enlarged openings from the passage into the hopper and the storage container. Refuse compacting means are positioned to sweep through the hopper to compact refuse and move the refuse from the hopper through the passage into the container. As the refuse moves through the passage, the refuse is squeezed and is subjected to high localized pressures as the refuse passes through the narrowed throat. A refuse compacting apparatus having a container or storage body for storing refuse under pressure, an ejection panel movable in the storage body, a loading hopper, a passage with a narrowed throat and packing panels movable in the hopper on a cyclic basis. Refuse is stuffed at high pressures into the narrowed throat in successive cycles of movement of the packing panels and is churned, fragmented and compacted during such stuffing operation. The refuse is then directed through the passage into the storage body where it is stored at reduced pressures. A servo operation is then provided to control optimally the compacting action on the refuse in the passage by controlling the pressure exerted by the refuse in the storage body. Thus, when the pressure exerted by the refuse against the ejection panel reaches a first particular value, the ejection panel is moved in a direction to relieve such pressure.
