In recent years, due to a number of cost, health, and environmental concerns, many municipalities, particularly in industrialized nations, have been forced to assess their solid waste management and examine its cost-effectiveness and environmental impacts. The result is that both private and municipal haulers are giving serious consideration to new technologies such as computerized vehicle routing software.Waste is located in containers along the streets of a defined road network. The containers must be collected by a fleet of compactor trucks. Each waste container is equipped with sensors that measure the weight of the refuse stored in the container Different types of municipal solid waste are collected separately, and furthermore there are separate containers for each waste type. Each vehicle can typically collect refuse from several hundreds of waste bins before going to the waste disposal site to unload. The amount of municipal solid waste is highly variable and the accumulation of waste depend on several factors such as the number of inhabitants sharing a container, GDP per capita, lifestyle, time of the year, etc. Therefore, the considered waste collection problem is stochastic by nature. In this study, the average accumulation rate of waste in each container type is estimated separately using the historical weight and route. The compactor truck daily collects waste from the public waste pits. Different types of waste pits have been installed for different purposes. The objective is to schedule the collection activities and to minimize the total distance travelled by the collection vehicles within each day. ThankYou.
