Abstract
A method for increasing the capacity of a garbage dump to allow additional garbage to be dumped therein, in which a depth packing device, such as a vibrator or ram, is lowered from the surface of the dump down to a predetermined depth to form a hole surrounded by compacted garbage; additional garbage is then placed in the hole and additionally compacted by the same depth packing device used to form the hole. If a vibrator is used, the additional garbage is dispensed from the vibrator tip as the vibrator is withdrawn from the hole so that a compacted column of garbage is formed. A ram device comprising a pipe having a removable closure at the lower end may also be used. As the pipe is withdrawn from the hole, additional garbage is placed through it and out through the lower closure; the additional garbage is compacted with a weight guided through the pipe.
