Description

The garbage truck was built to collect trash and haul it away. Many different types of vehicles are used to remove trash. Front loaders generally service commercial businesses using large waste containers with lids known as dumpsters. Rear loaders have anopening at the back of the truck that accepts trash bags or the contents of bins into it. A sand cleaning machine drags a sifting device across the beach sand to remove trash. A garbage scow is used to transport garbage across waterways. It is often towed by tugboats. A landfill site is used for the disposal of waste materials and is the oldest form of waste treatment. Garbage trucks take their trash to landfill sites and dispose of the waste materials. The United States creates so much trash that many states have passed laws about recycling. Recycling is a process to change waste into new products that helps prevent so much waste--
