Collection Routes
Use a heuristic (common sense), trial and error approach consistent with
the philosophy of collecting the most waste with least resources in the
context of constraints such as equipment breakdowns, holidays and
vacations, good labor practices and the following guidelines:
Crew size and vehicles must be known and coordinated.
Routes should begin and end near arteries
Topographic and physical boundaries should be route boundaries.
Start at the top of a hill and work downward.
Last collection point should be near disposal site.
Traffic problems should be dealt with early in the morning.
Extremely large load should be dealt with early in the morning.
