Abstract
Lee County, Mississippi, has demonstrated a unique county-wide approach to rural solid waste collection and disposal. Many of the smaller secondary roads in the county could not be safely traveled by a large packer truck. However, by placing wheel-and-axle-mounted mobil waste containers in areas with these roads, collection service could be provided to rural locations. On collection day, a pick-up truck would tow the mobil containers to a predetermined point for emptying by the packer truck. Standard stationary containers are utilized along improved roads. The final report on this project describes the system, documents the implementation problems and provides cost data.
