    I believe some refuse trucks have different compartments for different types of waste.

    They are called split bodies or twinpack. They can be separated 50/50 70/30 And some have 3 binlifts while others only have the normal 2.

    Not sure wether it was a split bin truck but have seen refuse collecter trucks throwing black bag household waste into the truck with the recycling bags too and it had the full width compaction blade.
