Bin
Sizes & Specifications
To determine the appropriate
bin or cart sizes required, it may be necessary to convert cubic yards to gallons,
or vice versa. The following conversion information will enable faster calculations
for specific development plans:
- 1 gallon = 0.00495 cubic
yards
- 1 cubic yard = 202 gallons
- Example: 1 cubic yard of
solid waste requires approximately two 96-gallon carts
