Today we found out about how our rubbish gets to the 'dump'. This is what we discovered.
1. We put our rubbish into the red bin.
2. The bin is put on the kerbside and the rubbish truck comes and picks it up.
3. It takes the rubbish to the transfer station.
4. At the transfer station, it is tipped into the pit.
5. A grader pushes the rubbish into a hole in the ground.
6. It get squashed or compacted into a blue container and stops when it reaches a particular weight or if no more can fit in.
7. They close the doors and it go to the yard.
8. Another truck comes along to pick up the container to the landfill.
PHEW what a process!
