ABSTRACT:
A truck for separately storing and discharging recyclable materials includes a chassis, a cab, and a frame pivotably mounted on the chassis rearwardly of the cab and supporting a housing with a platform extending along one side to the cab. Partition walls in the housing divide the interior space into a multiplicity of compartments along the length of the housing and a side wall has openings providing access to the several compartments. The partition walls have gates which are held in closed position by locks which are remotely releasable. An upper compartment is provided on the housing and a chute extends upwardly from an opening in the side wall, and a deflectable closure for the opening permits insertion of recyclable materials thereinto. A diagonally extending door is provided on the rear end of the cab adjacent the platform and is slidable between a closed position closing the cab and an open position extending along the adjacent side wall to permit passage between the cab and the platform.
