Coincidentally, I was watching a fleet of three garbage trucks going though my neighborhood this week, wondering if the impact of running 3x garbage trucks to pick up trash, compost, recycyling was completely offset by the end product. I suspect the answer is no.

3 trucks would only be wasteful if they didn't manage to complete a full load over their entire shift.

I doubt that's the case. (The yard waste and recycling bins are more full in my neighbourhood than the garbage cans...)
