Short Description

The purpose of this publication is to explain the differences between "street wastes" and "Vactor wastes." "Vactor" is a brand name for a vacuum truck that is capable of picking up many types of wastes. Currently, a wide variety of wastes are collected by Vactor trucks and treated as street wastes. However, not all wastes picked up by a Vactor truck qualify as street wastes.
