MOTORBIKES QUIET AND ECOL "GICOS
Among other improvements, is the incorporation of two 100% electric vehicles with zero emissions of polluting gases into the atmosphere and zero noise, to be used in living and pedestrian streets for the removal of trash containers.
Two other vehicles also include satellites for placement and removal of containers in the door to door, thus avoiding the location of containers on the street during the day, getting a lower visual impact of these items and inconvenience to citizens.
Another innovation is a multi-truck (Cayvol) that can perform three operations with the same vehicle (collection of furniture, collection compactors, waste collection and scanning).
The service also improves with the purchase of eight vehicles for waste collection Porta deposited outside the container, such as paper, cardboard, household appliances, packaging, furniture and other belongings.
Finally the new vehicles, quieter in general, reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by adapting to a much stricter standard than required at European level.
