The efficiency of solid waste collection is influenced by the type of vehicle used, methods of collection and the type of area served with the r2 values equal to 100%. Mechanical collection with a lifter has been proven to be the most efficient (0.39 minute/lot) compared to manual collection by open lorry which is the least efficient (5.11 minute/lot). In terms of area served, collection of waste in residential areas is the most efficient at about 0.19 minute/lot. The semimechanical collection method is relatively cheaper (RM415,720/lorry.year) than manual collection (RM435,290/lorry.year). In addition, the collection of solid waste by private agencies is relatively cheaper than collection by government agencies.
