A more polite term would be "Sanitation Engineers", "Civil Cleanliness Experts" or "Waste Removal Service".

[edit] Notable Waste Collectors?

Should Boy George really be recorded as a Notable Waster Collector? In my opinion, NO! Yes, he's a notable person, and it was well publicised, but in my opinion, someone doesn't become a 'notable waste collector' for just picking up a bit of crap up of the floor for a few days! Opinions please! Paul Norfolk Dumpling 14:53, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

IMO a person who can be called "Waste collector" is a person who either
  • Had the job for more time than the company test period (that would be 3 months where I am) or
  • Obviously intended to keep the job when something came up breaking that plan (i.e. injury, death, waste company closing or other force majeure).
To be a NOTABLE w.col. one must have done the notable thing while in the job as a w.col.

    • I'm going to delete Boy George, because it's stupid that he's there. Paul Norfolk Dumpling 22:18, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
OBVIOUSLY we need to consider whether or not it's encyclopedic to have a list of famous garbage men. Perhaps we should check some real encyclopedias and check to see if they mention famous garbage men. Oh wow, who would have guessed that they dont? 64.230.7.46 19:04, 17 October 2007 (UTC) Ps Thank you for removing it Paul
