Are you ready to learn about garbage truck and recycling today?

Now, let's learn some of the parts of the garbage truck. Come on!

Uh! Ha, ha. That, the cab, it's where the garbage truck driver sits

Ha, ha. That's so fun. I love garbage trucks.

Woah! Look at right here! You know what this is,

it's a fire extinguisher just in case if there is any fire near

you'll soon learn that cause let me teach ya.

Here are some more safety features of the garbage truck. Look!

Just in case if the road gets really icy and slippery.

You rap them around the tires so then the garbage truck can drives straight

and make the truck really bright at night.

Oh! Look, a spill kit! Another safety feature.

This yellow bag contains absorbent pats just in case if there is

any ewy and icky things on the ground that you can't scoop or broom up

into the garbage truck. So you use the spill kit.

Oh, come back here, I have something really cool to show you.

The garbage truck just lower because of those air bags

and it used those air bags right before you dump.

this is how you dump the recycling goods out of the garbage truck.

This opens up because these hydraulic cylinders push the back door

really open and then it dumps all the compressed goods out of it.

But first, we need some stuff in it. How do you get it in there?

The coolest part. Let me show you. Come on.

It's like a claw. It grabs the can, pulls it in, brings it up

Look! The hopper up there! And then it gets pushed

into the compression body right here, and then it gets compressed really tight

and then it gets dumped out of the back like I said.

Now that we know the parts of a garbage truck and how it works

let's learn about the differences between garbage and recycling.

Garbage, you only can use once and then you through it away.

You only use that stuff once and then you through it away.

Because it might get melted down or just processed back into

the original product or something similar made out of the same material,

Let me show you some of the things I brought from home to recycle today.

Oh, look, a milk jug. That's plastic, you can recycle plastic.

Now that we know the difference between garbage and recyclable goods,

let's visit a recycling facility and sort out some recyclable goods.

First, we need our safety equipment on before we go inside.

Bright vest, bright hard hat and safety glasses.

Now that we have all the recyclable materials out of the truck

now we get them sorted. This is going to be fun!

All the recyclable materials come up the conveyable

because there are so many different kinds like paper, plastic,

cardboard, aluminum, tin. There are so many!

All of the recyclable goods travel down these conveyor belts,

workers sort them out by the different types of materials

and once they get sorted it out to one type of material

like this cardboard, it then gets crashed and compacted

Then a forklift comes up, picks it up and transports it

And when the material is ready to be transported onto the back of a semi

to go somewhere else to be recycled, a forklift loads it
