Uneducated view from a single video, but this seems incredibly inefficient? How many of these have to be processed on a weekly basis? I'd expect for such a size of vessel, the truck is in and out in < 15 seconds.
- sschueller 4y agoThere are a lot of them but they also hold a lot of trash. The big ones can hold up to 12m3 while a rolling container holds 770L or around 12 35L bags.

It would also take a similar amount of time to pickup a long street full of rolling steel containers holding around the same amount of trash. At ~USD 1.70 for one 35L bag people also recycle a lot.
