Waste Collection - Commercial Waste Collection

Commercial Waste Collection

Waste Collection considerations include type and size of bins, positioning of the bins, and how often bins are to be serviced. Overfilled bins result in rubbish falling out while being tipped. Hazardous rubbish like empty petrol cans can cause fires igniting other trash when the truck compactor is operating. Bins may be locked or stored in secure areas to avoid having non-paying parties placing rubbish in the bin.

Truck drivers are now being trained in identifying and managing power line hazards. Front lift garbage truck lift hooks may pull down power lines if left upright at the top of the trunk.

Famous quotes containing the words commercial, waste and/or collection:

    A commercial society whose members are essentially ascetic and indifferent in social ritual has to be provided with blueprints and specifications for evoking the right tone for every occasion.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    Long ago the country bore the country-town and nourished it with her best blood. Now the giant city sucks the country dry, insatiably and incessantly demanding and devouring fresh streams of men, till it wearies and dies in the midst of an almost uninhabited waste of country.
    Oswald Spengler (1880–1936)

    Our society is not a community, but merely a collection of isolated family units.
    Valerie Solanas (b. 1940)
