In Kaohsiung, Taiwan, the garbage trucks play a tune that sounds similar to ice cream trucks in America. The tune notifies proximate residents that they can drop off their trash. These trucks run past the same area multiple times during every day -- sunup and sundown -- allowing for maximal convenience.
