Spillage Upon Public Ways: All vehicles used in the removal, collection or transportation of garbage or rubbish, as defined in section 4-1-1 of this chapter, shall be constructed in such a manner that will prevent any portion of the garbage or rubbish from leaking, spilling, falling or blowing out of the vehicle, or onto any public highway, street or other public or private place. Such vehicle being drawn or driven over the public ways or streets shall not be loaded above a point that will result in any portion of the contents being spilled therefrom.
