Better Service with Split-Body Trucks: How Evergreen Waste Services Is Leading the Way
If you’ve ever seen one of our Evergreen Waste Services trucks collecting recycling and yard waste at the same time, you might have wondered—how does it all stay separate? The answer lies in the design of our split-body trucks, a smart, sustainable solution that’s helping us provide efficient service while protecting the environment.
Split-body trucks are divided into two sealed compartments: 60% of the truck is dedicated to recyclables, while 40% is reserved for yard waste. This allows us to collect both materials on a single route without mixing them—saving time, fuel, and resources. While it may look like everything is going into the same truck, rest assured: the contents remain completely separated, and each material is delivered to its proper destination. Recyclables are taken to DNREC facilities in clean, uncontaminated condition, ensuring they can be properly processed and reused.
Evergreen Waste Services is currently the only company in the area offering trash, recycling, and yard waste pickup every day, and our split-body trucks plays a key role in making that possible.
The Benefits of Split-Body Trucks:
- Cost-Effective – Reduces operational costs and helps keep rates reasonable for our customers
- Efficient – Fewer trips are needed, reducing wear on roads and time spent in neighborhoods
- Environmentally Friendly – Fewer trucks mean a lower carbon footprint and cleaner air
- Community-Friendly – Less noise and less traffic in residential areas
By combining advanced vehicle technology with a commitment to sustainability, Evergreen Waste Services is proud to offer a smarter way to serve our community—one that prioritizes the environment, efficiency, and customer satisfaction.
So next time you see one of our split-body trucks in your neighborhood, you’ll know—it’s more than just a pickup. It’s a part of a better, greener future.
