Three reasons for installing a garbage chute
Many high-rise buildings now contain garbage chutes, which residents and workers can use to dispose of rubbish without having to go down to street level. What are the advantages of using such a waste disposal method?
Convenience
Garbage chutes are convenient, both for the residents and for whoever has responsibility for collecting the garbage. No one at the top of a tower block wants to have to go all the way down to drop off a bag of rubbish; and from the garbage collection point of view, having to go through the entire building to pick up the trash would increase the time needed, and therefore the costs.
