Abstract | This study, for the first time, provides an authoritative description of the private sector contractor involved in the collection of solid wastes from residential, commercial, and industrial sources. No comprehensive national information previously existed depicting this industry in gross terms or in specific characteristics. Review of all study data reveals a dynamic and changing industry that is larger, more vigorous, and making a significantly more important contribution to the solid waste management collection and disposal system than previously assumed. |
