garbage trucks
Curbside bin emptiers
Garbage trucks are vehicles designed to collect and transport refuse.
They typically have a compartment for waste and mechanical systems—hydraulic lifts, compactors—to handle bins and compress contents.
In American English, the term is standard; British English prefers dustcart or bin lorry.
The garbage truck comes on Tuesdays.
