    My
    problem with trash compactors is that the bags get too heavy for schlepping
    off a boat. Multiple bags are easier.

    ****************************
     
    Multiple schlepps can be a problem too, particularly if you're anchoring out
    for extended periods. We use a compromise contraption that works well for
    us. It is a plastic garbage can with a handle in the lid that flips up and lets
    you "smush" the contents by pushing down. The result is usually fairly
    compact but not seriously heavy AND it uses any kind of tall kitchen garbage bag
    you want. I can't recall where I got ours but I've seen them in several of the
    "nautical stuff" catalogs. Low tech and efficient. That gives me one of
    those. Now I have to deal with the bazillion other things I over-complicated.....
