RJ-250SC-ET Features:

Also See the RJ-250 HT. The RJ-250HT features a Hydraulic Tailgate and is well suited for security chute-fed and dock-fed applications where maneuvering space for the collection vehicle is limited.
- Large 40" x 78" feed opening to handle bulky items!
- Continuous feeding capability – even while compactor is operating!
- Adaptable to special loading systems such as large capacity hoppers, security chutes or total enclosures.
- Total odor and pest control via Marathon's Ozone Odor Control option
- Easy loading from either ground or dock level.
- Over 24 tons of crushing force to reduce refuse to a fraction of its former size saving valuable space.
- Fits into same space as industry pace-setting RJ-100SC! Extra length roll-off hoist is not required!
- Easy and fast installation! Installation costs are cut by half over conventional compaction systems.
- Fire hose connection provided on each unit.
- Factory testing to assure leakproof construction.
The RJ-250 Compactors combine the ability to safely store high-liquid content wastes in controlled environments with the conveniences and economics of compaction! Offering maximum benefits for:
- Malls
- Supermarkets
- Large Restaurants
- Hotels
- Hospitals and institutions
- Resorts and food processors
Engineering
Components are selected for longevity and minimum maintenance, with special attention given to the selection of highly sensitive components. Stress engineering provides the optimum degree of structural integrity. Only the best materials are used. The highest standards of quality are observed in the manufacturing process. That's why you'll find Marathon Compactors "packing trash" long after other makes have failed!
The RJ-250 units are state-of-the-art in roll-off self-contained compactors featuring oversized feed opening and expanded container storage capacity. They are designed to store and transport your wastes, prevent contamination of your work and public areas in accordance with public health department requirements, improve working conditions for your employees and reduce disposal costs.
RJ-250SC-ET Compactor can be customized with a variety of loading arrangements to suit your specific needs.
Marathon's RJ-250SC ET Self Contained Compactor is UL Listed!
Features & Benefits of Marathon's Self-Contained Wet Waste Compaction Equipment:
- Marathon's CYCON Life-Xtender® Cyclic Control System: eliminates troublesome limit and pressure cycle control switches. It also reduces trash removal cost by producing superior payloads and dramatically improving cold weather performance.
- Marathon's compactors meet all of ANSI and OSHA standards.
- Each unit is UL Listed to assure quality and maintains the highest industry standards (does not apply to GreenBuilt).
- Standard double end pick-up (except HT models) which allows the unit to be loaded for hauling from either end. This is especially useful if the self-contained unit is perpendicular to a dock.
- Through-the-wall feed chutes offer convenience to employees that reduces labor cost and improves security.
The Qwik Clean Tank® funnels any liquid seepage during compaction into an enclosed area underneath the charge box floor. The liquid is automatically discharged at the disposal site, in effect flushing the container and the area behind the ram.
Rear door retains wet waste effectively with its patented "Double-Hinge" and custom designed "P" Seal.
The innovative "Bubble Gate" adds a cubic yard to the container capacity. Its curved shape also produces superior compaction ratios.

Optional Features:
TrashMinder®
The optional TrashMinder® is the most advanced method for reporting and measuring container fullness as well as for managing user access and billing. Get More Details.
Qwik Clean Door®
The innovative Qwik Clean Door provides access to the area behind the ram of self-contained compactors. It allows for quick, easy cleaning and other routine maintenance without having to unbolt panels or break welds. The Qwik Clean Door features our Auto-Relatch to hold the door closed while the door is being ratcheted and our patented “P” Seal for a tight, leak proof seal.
The StreamLine® Option
allows excess liquid to be drained from the container reducing net payload weight and significantly reducing hauling costs! Liquid is routed to four interconnected 4" drain outlets located at each corner of the StreamLine unit. Connection can be made to a hose, piping, or pump.
See how the StreamLine System works.
