Abstract
Results of a limited test of refuse collection vehicles indicate productivity per worker in New York City could be increased on three man crews from 3.78 tons per man day to 5.44 tons. Using two man crews, productivity could be increased from 3.04 tons per man day to 4.56 tons. Total cost savings for fleet diversification are estimated at 25-30 million dollars annually.
