All vehicles used in the removal, collection or transportation of garbage, trash, waste paper, refuse, rubbish, building material or concrete shall be constructed in such a manner that will prevent any portion of the load from leaking, spilling, falling or blowing out of the vehicles onto any public highway, street or other public or private place. The 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 from the vehicle. All such vehicles shall be kept in a clean and sanitary condition at all times, and shall at all times be subject to inspection by the Chief of Police or his or her duly authorized representative. If, in his or her judgment, a vehicle is found to be defective or unfit for use, he or she is empowered to prevent the use of the vehicle until it is put in proper condition to comply with the terms of this section.
