Best Answer

There are several types of garbage trucks, and they operate by different means. Container trucks can empty either by offloading their container, or opening the back door of that container and dumping out, much in the same fashion as a straightforward dump truck.

Never dealt with compactor trucks firsthand, but I've always been under the impression that the compactor arm simply pushes the refuse out of the back of the truck - any compactor drivers who happen across this are certainly free to correct me if I'm wrong on this.

Some garbage trucks are little more than straightforward dump trucks.
