ABSTRACT:
A motor truck for use in collecting and processing solid waste material such as scrap tires. The truck includes a chassis including a cab; a body structure positioned on the chassis behind the cab and defining a storage chamber; a shredder mounted on top of the body structure forwardly of the storage chamber; a compactor positioned within the body structure beneath the shredder and forwardly of the storage chamber; and a conveyor system for conveying tires from a curbside location upwardly for discharge downwardly into the open upper end of the shredder. The shredded tires are discharged downwardly into the body structure rearwardly of the compactor, whereafter the compactor is actuated to stroke rearwardly and compress the tire shreds into the storage chamber. After the truck has visited a series of retail tire outlets and the storage chamber is full of tire shreds, the truck returns to a recycling facility where a door at the rear of the storage chamber is opened and the compactor is utilized as an ejector to eject the tire shreds from the storage chamber. At the recycling facility the tire shreds are processed to form a rubber crumb material and the rubber crumb material is further processed at further processing facilities to form diverse finished products.
