Who collects the garbage and where does it goes?
Garbage from houses or from the streets is collected by waste collector or rag picker, now a days automated trucks are also provided by municipalities to pick up the garbage from houses or from streets. Separate dustbins are also provided in some cities and towns for collecting two kinds of garbage, one is coloured blue and the other green for materials which can be used again such as metals, glass and plastics. While the green one is used to dispose kitchen material, plant or animal waste etc.
The collected garbage loaded into garbage trucks was then dumped into landfills, these are huge places for dumping garbage where garbage is treated safely so that it will not affects the environment. The garbage is then covered with protective layer of soil and allowed to decayed naturally by the action of microorganisms present in the soil. Incinerators are also used to burn those waste material which can be burned easily.
