Steps in Preparing Solid Waste for Disposal
-
Transfer Station _ Receiving Solid Waste
-
Collection Drivers enter the baler house to empty the solid waste gathered in the truck's collection tank.
-
Emptying Load on the Conveyor Belt
-
After safely entering the baler house, Collection Drivers empty their collected loads onto the conveyor belt. This is where the transfer station crew take over. Crew members review & sort the load for acceptable waste.
This conveyor belt moves trash into the baler, where items are compressed and then secured to make the now compacted solid waste into bales. -
