Waste Collection

Definitions. “Solid waste collection” means the act of removing solid waste from the central storage point of a primary generating source (such as a residence or business) to a place of solid waste disposal; “Solid waste disposal” means the orderly process of finally disposing of solid waste; and “Solid waste storage” means the interim containment of solid waste, in an approved manner, after generation and prior to collection and disposal.

Components of refuse collection A refuse collection service requires vehicles and labour. In order to deploy the vehicles and workers efficiently, a clear understanding of the three main components of refuse collection is necessary: 1. travel to and from the collection area; 2. the collection process (transfer of the wastes from storage to collection vehicles, and travel between successive collection points); and 3. the delivery process (transport of the contents of the vehicle to the processing or the disposal site).

During non-working hours, collection vehicles should be kept in a garage with enclosed parking space. The distance between the garage and the collection area. The slow speed of animal carts and handcarts requires the provision of closely spaced district depots.

The many methods of transferring wastes from storage to the collection vehicle fall into the following three main categories: 1. Direct emptying of a portable storage container into the vehicle, normally used when the vehicle can be positioned close to the containers. 2. Emptying of a portable storage container into a transfer container,which is then emptied into the storage compartment of the vehicle. 3. Transfer of loose wastes stored on the ground, which usually requires that the wastes be pushed or sweeped into the vehicle.

Municipal solid waste is collected in several ways: 1. House-to-House:. The user generally pays a fee for the service. 2. Community Bins: Users bring their garbage to community bins that are placed at fixed points in a neighborhood or locality. MSW is picked up by the municipality, or its designate, according to a set schedule. 3. Curbside Pick-Up: Users leave their garbage directly outside their homes according to a garbage pick-up schedule set with the local authorities (secondary house-to house collectors not typical).

4. Self Delivered: Generators deliver the waste directly to disposal sites or transfer stations, or hire third-party operators (or the municipality). 5. Contracted or Delegated Service: Businesses hire firms (or municipality with municipal facilities) who arrange collection schedules and charges with customers.
