HOWO 10cbm trash compactor truck Ghana

Name: HOWO 10cbm trash compactor truck Ghana
Brand: Sinotruk HOWO

The Sinotruk HOWO 10cbm trash compactor truck is a 4x2 rear-loading waste collection vehicle built on a 140HP diesel chassis, designed for daily refuse transport in urban residential areas, industrial zones, ports, airports, and high-density facilities. It handles mixed municipal solid waste with a compacted 8 cubic meter body and a 1.5 cubic meter filler, reducing the number of trips required and preventing spillage and odour during transit. The truck meets Euro 3 emission standards and is equipped with a high-strength T420 steel compaction body and a Siemens PLC-controlled hydraulic system for reliable operation in harsh environments.

Key Benefits

8 cubic meter compacted waste capacity reduces transport frequency and fuel use
1.5 cubic meter filler allows rapid loading without stopping the compaction cycle
High-strength T420 steel body resists deformation and wear from abrasive waste
18 MPa hydraulic system ensures fast compaction and consistent pressure
35 second dumping time and 25 second recycling time improve daily operational efficiency
PLC and manual controls at three locations allow safe operation from cab or rear
Euro 3 compliant engine reduces emissions and supports urban environmental regulations
Front and rear drain tanks (200L and 500L) manage leachate and prevent overflow

Buyer Profile

Who It Is for

Municipal sanitation departments managing daily waste collection in cities and towns
Airport and port authorities requiring odour-free, high-capacity waste transport
Industrial and mining enterprises with on-site waste generation and limited disposal access
Contractors bidding on public sector waste collection tenders with strict environmental requirements
Military and large residential complexes with internal waste management fleets

Operating Problems

Problems It Solves

Frequent trips due to low compaction capacity and small body volume
Odour and spillage during transport caused by unsealed or poorly designed bodies
High maintenance costs from weak body materials that dent or corrode quickly
Slow compaction cycles that delay loading and reduce daily route capacity
Lack of remote control options leading to unsafe operator positioning
Inadequate drainage systems causing leachate buildup and environmental risk

Where It Works

Application Scenarios

Municipal waste collection in densely populated urban neighborhoods with narrow streets
Airport and port terminal waste transport where hygiene and odour control are critical
Industrial parks and mining sites generating large volumes of mixed solid waste
Military bases and large residential compounds with centralized waste management systems
Remote or low-infrastructure areas where waste must be compacted to minimize transport trips
Contractor fleets operating under public tenders requiring reliable, low-maintenance vehicles

How It Is Built

Manufacturing Process

Chassis is received from Sinotruk and wheelbase is verified against the compactor body drawing
Body shell is cut from T420 steel plates and welded with precision to maintain structural integrity
Internal support beams and compaction components are installed and aligned
Hydraulic system components are assembled and pressure tested before integration
PLC control system is installed and linked to all operating buttons and sensors
Body is shot blasted, primed, and finished in standard grey or custom colour with logo
Full system test includes compaction cycle, dumping sequence, and hydraulic pressure check
Photos and videos of the finished truck are sent to the buyer before balance payment

Testing

Quality Control

Every truck undergoes 100 percent testing before delivery
Hydraulic system tested under full load and pressure for 15 minutes
Compaction cycle timed and verified to meet ≤25 second recycling and ≤35 second dumping

Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

4x2 compactor with 5 cbm body	Lower capacity requires more trips but is easier to maneuver in tight urban areas
Front loader compactor	Better for container loading but less effective on loose or bulky waste
Standard dump truck with compactor add-on	Cheaper but lacks integrated hydraulic system and fails to meet compaction efficiency standards

Operating Notes

Use Guide

Confirm left or right hand drive chassis at order stage to match local traffic rules
Fill only through the designated filler opening and avoid overloading beyond 8 cbm
Use the rear control panel only when the truck is stationary and the engine is running
Drain front and rear tanks regularly to prevent overflow and corrosion
Inspect hydraulic hoses and seals weekly for wear or leaks
Perform routine maintenance on the engine and hydraulic pump every 500 hours
