Which type of compactor primarily helps in reducing the volume of solid waste during collection?

Compactor Collection Trucks are specifically designed for collecting and compressing solid waste during the pickup process. These vehicles are equipped with an onboard compaction system that allows them to crush and pack waste tightly, significantly reducing its volume. This is crucial for maximizing the load capacity of the truck, thereby allowing for more efficient waste transportation and minimizing the number of trips required to the landfill. By efficiently compacting during collection, these trucks play a vital role in the overall waste management process, ensuring that the collection and disposal of solid waste is both effective and economical.

Landfill Compactors, while essential for treating waste at the landfill site, focus more on compressing already deposited waste rather than on the collection phase. Static and Mobile Compactors serve different functions related to waste processing and storage but are not specifically designed for the collection phase in the same way that Compactor Collection Trucks are.
