Apparatus for compacting refuse comprising a fixed position compactor head, a portable refuse container having an open upper end and positionable below and in substantially vertical alignment with the head, and lift apparatus engageable with the container and operable to move the container upwardly to engage the refuse therein with the head so as to compact the refuse in the container. The lift apparatus consists of a cylinder assembly operated by water pressure and capable of maintaining a sustained force on the container over a period of time so that the refuse therein is subjected to a continuous compacting action by the head. A door operated valve controls the flow of water to the cylinder assembly.
