Becca Resnik Jun 1, 2020:
It may look odd that I've suggested something with the name "baler," but I know them to be called this from when I ran them in the carpet industry when we baled cardboard cones emptied of their fiber (yarn). I have a couple links with images and terminology in my proposed translation.
Chris Pr Jun 1, 2020:
...except that a baler will likely be a "Ballenpresse".
Which is precisely why sound references are always preferred to pure speculation.

Roll-off compactor for ..... ......cardboard materials of all kinds

would make sense. A machine that crushes cardboard waste into bales, I guess. Packer rather connotes a wrapping up process, something being placed in a confined space.
Mary Harris Jun 1, 2020:
Links do not mean substantiation Press-container as an answer does not consider the key part of *Abrollpresse*, *roll-off*. Of the three substantiating website links provided, Eco Communal and Bergermann both consider *Abroll* and respectively translate *Abroll-Presscontainer* as *roll-off press container* and *Abrollkipper* as *roll-off skip loaders*. The Ganser-gruppe link is in German only and makes reference to a Presscontainer and an Abrollcontainer, but not an Abrollpresse. There is no English version, so the link simply provides similar words in German and offers no substantiation.

"The MULTIPRESS ECO is available as a skip press container (8, 10 or 12m³),
as a roll-off press container (15m³) or also as a stationary press with hook-on
containers."

roll-off (cardboard) baler/compactor

"roll-off" is important here is it is a system to roll the container into place rather than being lifted into position

roll-off packer


I´ve suggested packer rather than press since the DE title of DIN 30730 uses Mobilebehälterpresse and the EN title uses Mobile Waste Packer. The primary difference between an Abrollpresse and a Mobilebehälterpresse is the method in which they are transported to and from the site. Mobile containers are transported using hook or chain carriers while roll-off containers are rolled off of a transport vehicle.

The second link also uses roll-off packer.

A quick copy/paste of the first link will bring up the reference mentioned. Not sure what I did wrong when adding this first reference.

The 2nd link makes 5 references to roll-off packers. One of which is the Example sentence above.
Example sentence:

PACKER, Roll-off - A packer similar to a stationary packer, but mounted on skids and equipped with heavy rollers so that it may be rolled onto or off a truck equipped with a tiltframe hoist.

disagree Chris Pr : Meaningless (or dead) references that don't support the claim...//And 'unprofessional' behaviour doesn't enhance your case either...// Still no bilingual connection to the German term provided = 'guesswork'...

A quick copy/paste of the 1st link will bring up the reference. The 2nd is definitely not meaningless.
