There are two primary systems used which either rely on the collection of waste in an [[RCV]] lorry and compaction of the material to aid efficiency in the logistics of the collection, or the collection of [[Recyclables|recyclables]] in a [[Kerbside Collection Lorry]] which relies on the sorting of materials into separate sections of the lorry to ensure removal of any contamination in the material collected. In the latter case an [[RCV]] is still used for [[residual waste]]/black bags and for the collection of [[green waste]]. In communal/multi-occupancy locations some of the systems set out below are used due to the large volumes concentrated and aggregated in one place i.e. at a block of flats.
