Babaee Tirkolaee, M. Alinaghian, M. Bakhshi Sasi, M. M. Seyyed Esfahani''' '''Abstract''' The urban waste collection is one of the major municipal activities that involves large expenditures and difficult operational problems. Also, waste collection and disposal have high expenses such as investment cost (i.e. vehicles fleet) and high operational cost (i.e. fuel, maintenance). In fact, making slight improvements in this issue lead to a huge saving in municipa...")
