The truck are all automated, so they only need the driver (that reduces costs) and less chance of spillage.
This system has also lead to an increase in recycling, which also keeps waste costs down as there is less need for landfill sites.

Sounds like an ideal world but I have a couple of questions over this...
1. what happened to the loaders, unemployed ?
2. what happens if the 'customer' puts the bin in the wrong place so the machine cannot reach it etc., is the bin missed ?
