Foton 5 m³ Compact Refuse Compactor for Space-Constrained Collection Routes
A compact rear-loading refuse compactor for residential compounds, institutions and narrow urban routes. Its 5 m³ body prioritizes access and route flexibility over maximum trip volume. The final steering, emission, payload and bin-lifter configuration must be confirmed for Ghana before quotation.
Core capabilities in operation
Capabilities are shown with their operating conditions. Route productivity varies with waste density, stop frequency, access and haul distance.
| Parameter | Working result | Calculation conditions | Factors that change the result |

Configuration options and trade-offs
- 5 m³ body: Improves access but provides less volume per trip than larger municipal compactors.
Operating fit
Suitable conditions
- Narrow urban streets
- Residential and institutional collection
- Short feeder routes
Not recommended for
- Routes requiring a larger body without intermediate unloading
- Operations where axle-load or registration compliance has not been checked
Frequently asked questions
What is the verified body capacity?
The source record identifies a 5 m³ refuse body.
Which routes suit this truck?
It is intended for compact urban, residential and institutional collection routes; productivity depends on route and waste conditions.
Is Ghana compliance confirmed?
No. Steering, emission and registration requirements must be confirmed for the final quotation.
This compact refuse compactor is intended for route segments where access and manoeuvrability matter more than maximum body volume. It uses a Foton 4×2 chassis with a 5 m³ refuse body, diesel power and manual transmission.
Recommended applications
Suitable uses include residential compounds, market areas, institutional sites and feeder routes to a larger transfer point. Route density, bin type and disposal distance should be reviewed before selecting this size.
Verified source configuration
- Foton 4×2 chassis

The source record lists a sealed body and hydraulic compaction system. Payload figures are not published here because the source contains values that require engineering confirmation.
Before quotation
Please provide the collection route, daily waste volume, bin sizes, disposal distance, required steering position and local registration requirements. The final emission level and chassis configuration must be confirmed against the destination rules and the signed specification sheet.
Frequently asked questions
What is the body capacity?
The verified source capacity is 5 m³.
Where is this size most useful?
It is best considered for compact routes and sites with constrained access. Actual route productivity depends on waste density, stop frequency and haul distance.
Is it ready for Ghana registration?
Registration and compliance status are not claimed on this page. They must be checked against the final chassis, steering and emission configuration.
Verification and support
Vehicle data is mapped from the source product record. Final payload, steering side, emissions, selected equipment, documents and destination-market compliance must be confirmed in the signed technical schedule.
