Yeah when I was there I saw a truck with a gaggle of collectors following behind grabbing bags and throwing them in.
I was both intrigued at the sight of something I used to see in my childhood still being done now and surprised at how many hot young people were working as collectors and not scruffy old 50-something overweight white men with facial hair.
You gotta keep up with the truck for hours every night
That shit is barbaric and rolling up containers and mechanical arms is one of those ridiculously obvious and easy improvements for any municipality, like sidewalk ramps in every corner

Be an interesting small rabbit hole to see whether or not the NY sanitation workers union were for or against that kind of automation.
