Abstract

In the processes of wastes management, wastes transportation process requires 70-80% of the total cost of wastes management, so that the cost savings can be done at the cost of freight. This study aims to create the modeling of freight costs and the cost of transporting waste in Malang city with the Arm Roll system. The primary data consisting of transporting distance, travelling time and volume of transported wastes, are obtained by a primary survey on the vehicle movement of the Arm Roll. Secondary data consisting of transportation cost and vehicles charateristics obtained from the Sanitation Department of Malang city and stakeholders. Estimation of the waste transportation cost by the wastes freight cost equation obtained from the relationship between vehicle operating cost (VOC) and vehicle speeds. Equation of the wastes transporting cost with the Arm Roll system is Y = 171,329.33x-0.50. (Y is a transportation cost (IDR/m3) and X is a vehicle speed (km/h)). Wastes transport use the Arm Roll at the speed of 21,759 km/h requires a fee of IDR 36,698.92 /m3. © 2014 CAFET-INNOVA TECHNICAL SOCIETY. All rights reserved.
