Vast increases in fuel costs over time has meant that it was no longer feasible to transport bulky materials such as cardboard and paper wastes without them first being compacted. While operators were searching for ways to gain extra payload they also had to face up to the fact that landfill space close to the main areas of waste production was becoming a scarce resource and thus commanding an ever increasing transportation, recycling and disposal costs.
The case for compaction equipment sited at the source of waste generation became essential and from that time compactor manufacture was of increasing importance. This was reflected in 1977 by a change of company name to Thetford International Compactors Ltd.
