LATEST TRENDS

Growing Adoption of IoT in Refuse Trucks to Offer New Growth Opportunities

The recent industry trends show an increasing inclination toward integrating advanced vehicle data collection software to improve the waste collection rates and fluency in garbage collection operations. Additionally, adopting IoT, 5G, AI, machine learning, fleet tracking, and data collection enhances the regular refuse operations with minimal fuel, energy consumption, and carbon emission. For instance, in April 2022, Rubicon introduced its smart waste management and recycling software for waste management companies to digitize refuse-related operations. The software collects data using combinations of garbage truck-mounted telematics devices that track metrics, which include braking, turning, engine health, and others and provides data on smart devices such as iPhones and iPads. Thus, the rising trend of smart vehicle tracking software is expected to further revolutionize the waste management industry.

DRIVING FACTORS

Greater Focus on Automating the Refuse Collection Operations to Drive the Market Growth

The growing population in the urban region has led to a significant increase in waste generation. Many players and local governments are considering automating the refuse collection system to efficiently recycle or dispose of the necessary trash to diminish the impact of solid waste on the environment as much as possible. Moreover, automating garbage trucks provides less workforce, consequently reducing the chance of error and maximizing the efficiency of the entire operation.

• For instance, in April 2022, McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing showcased its new front loader collection of refuse trucks equipped with features such as a latitude residential system and others to improve the further collection efficiency of municipal solid waste.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Risk of Health Related Risks Associated with the Waste Management Industry May Affect Market Growth

Despite the growing adoption of automation in the refuse collection industry, health safety and health-related risk is still an issue that severely disfavors the North America garbage truck bodies market growth. The refuse collection industry requires intense man labor and long shifts that induce a heavy toll on the human body. Moreover, these jobs provide low pay and nearly no health benefits for the workers and staff are some of the factors tainting the solid waste management sector and may restrain the garbage trucks bodies market growth during the forecast period.
