Every vehicle used for hauling solid waste shall be covered, leakproof, durable, and of easily cleanable construction. Every vehicle used for hauling solid waste shall be sufficiently airtight so as to prevent unreasonable quantities of dust, paper, or other collected materials to escape. Every vehicle shall be kept clean to prevent nuisances, pollution or insect breeding, and shall be maintained in good repair.
