Transportation of Incineration Residue

["Kohshi-TAKA" <kohshi-t@kk.iij4u.or.jp>]

Dear members,

How do you transport the residue from waste incinerator to landfill site by
automobile ?
I would like to know the ash dispersion control measures for transportation and
dumping at the landfill site.

Do you use special plastic bags ? 
I saw the French people use bags and transport the packed bags of ash by
automobiles. 
How about your countries ? 
Is there any regulation for the transportation of the ash by automobiles ?

When the packed ash arrived at the landfill site, how do you treat the bags ?
Do you break the bags ? Do you dump the packed bags at the site ?

It is not common to use bags in Japan. We always filled the wet ash on the
trucks directly, and then covered with plastic sheets or roof. 
We transport the ash to landfill site in this manner and unload them.
