ELV Recyclers

Central to all waste collection and recycling collections are the vehicles used to transport the material.

Refuse collection vehicles vary in size and design - such as whether they have one single collection compartment or several compartments for different recyclates. Some containers can be detached from the chassis and stored for transport at a later date. This is particularly useful in rural areas or those long distances from the point of disposal.

Other vehicles have front, side or rear-loading arms to tip the contents of banks or bins directly into the container. Some designs are specially tailored to high-density urban areas, where space may be tight.

Search the letsrecycle.com Directory for a wide range of suppliers for everything from dedicated low-entry refuse collection vehicles to vehicle hire firms.
