What is a "garbage truck"?
A garbage truck is a vehicle used to collect and transport waste. It is usually large, with a spacious compartment to hold trash. Garbage trucks are designed to pick up waste from containers, such as bins or dumpsters, and often have lifting systems to raise and empty them into the truck. These trucks are commonly used by city sanitation departments to keep streets clean and are equipped with features like compacting systems to reduce the volume of waste during transportation. Some garbage trucks are also used for recycling collection.
Example
The garbage truck comes by our neighborhood every Monday morning to collect trash.
The sanitation workers empty dumpsters into the back of the garbage truck during their route.
Modern garbage trucks are equipped with hydraulic systems to lift and empty residential trash bins.
