A Refuse Collection Vehicle is a special type of truck used to collect garbage. There are four basic types of refuse collection vehicles:

1. Front loaders: the waste collection mechanism is mounted on the front of the truck. Front loaders are mostly used for collecting industrial garbagel

2. Rear loaders: these refuse collection vehicles are commonly seen in cities, where they collect garbage from wheelie bins

3. Side loaders: used mostly for collecting garbage in the suburbs. They can collect garbage from small and medium dustbins.

4. Pneumatic refuse collection vehicle: a type of dustcart that collests garbage from bins with the use of an air tube, that sucks garbage out of the wheelie bin.
