This guidebook introduces the use of performance specifications in the procurement of refuse collection vehicles, presenting a methodology for developing such specifications for payload capacity, compaction cycle time, and reload time. In addition, the User's Manual, the final product of the research effort, is previewed. In this document are discussions of: (1) the concept, overview, and data sources of the performance specification process; (2) the description and purpose of the User's Manual; (3) the performance specification of vehicle payload capacity; (4) the specification of compaction cycle and reload times; and (5) life cycle costing.
