A dumpster is unloaded by a front-loading garbage truck. The main purpose of a dumpster is to store garbage until it is emptied by a garbage truck for disposal. [12] Dumpsters can be used for all kinds of waste, or for recycling purposes. Most dumpsters are emptied by front-loading garbage trucks.
A side-load bin tipper was fitted to a garbage truck as early as 1929, by the Heil company in America. [6] In the 1950s the Dempster Dumpmaster popularized the front-end loader variant, with bins being tipped over the cab of the truck. [7] Both types of integrated bin tipper are now common on municipal refuse collection trucks.
Some trucks have a hydraulic arm which lifts the dumpster from the bottom and tips it into the back of a packer truck. some are loaded by front loader type waste trucks. The larger of the dumpsters look like skips but are unloaded on-site into rear loading packer trucks. 47.23.29.18 19:00, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Containers that are overloaded can result in damage to the roll-off truck and the road it drives on. The maximum weight is specified at the beginning of the job. In cases where the material to be disposed of is especially dense, such as dirt, rock, or concrete, a container with lower sidewalls is used.
The containers are usually open-topped boxes used for rubble and building debris, [21] but rubbish compactor containers are also carried. A newer hook-lift system ("roller container" in the UK) does the same job, but lifts, lowers, and dumps the container with a boom arrangement instead of a cable and hoist.
