dustcarts
Garbage collection vehicles
Dustcarts are British garbage trucks—vehicles that collect household waste.
The term comes from an older sense of dust meaning refuse or ash.
Americans say garbage truck or trash truck; Britons say dustcart or bin lorry.
The dustcarts come round on Tuesday mornings.
