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.

—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

Pretending that there can be passion
That has more life in it than death,”
