New Refuse Disposal Unit

A new and advanced form of transport for refuse collection has been acquired by Clare & Clare. It is a truck with a removable bin which is operated hydraulically (Left). The bin fits into the tray of the truck but can be lifted right out, placed on the ground, and left while refuse is put in it as required. The truck then picks up the bin (below left) and takes it away. When ready to tip the rubbish, two large lugs secure the back end of the bin and it reverts to normal tipping (below right).
