Having come from the garbage industry I have a lot of contacts in the paper and plastic recycling business. I just had a few of them stop by and offer to install a baler as long as I give them my plastic. They only requested that I sort the plastic by color to get a better price. I wouldn't imagine a company would want to give you a compactor unless they are picking it up multiple times a week and you are perhaps paying a lease fee for the machine. I have purchased and installed many of them and they cost a pretty penny. You would not expect to get paid for the material unless you were doing A LOT of volume. The company providing it would have to recoup the cost of the machine and you would be stuck in a long term contract with them (if they're smart). The best bet for plastic is with out a doubt bailing, storing and shipping.
