AB  - Kerbside collection is mostcommon method in Turkey for solid waste collection. Çorlu has increasingpopulation rate due to growing industrial activities and investments.Information used in the study such as; average waste collection amount in amonth, truck properties (volume, engine power) and travelled distance duringwaste collection were obtained from Çorlu Municipality. Total fuel consumptionof trucks during collection of 1-ton waste for 1-km is between 2.12-5.47 L diesel / tonin Çorlu. Greenhouse gas emissions for different scenarios were calculated inthis study. First, GHG emission estimation done for same volume trucks usingdifferent fuel types, second estimation done for trucks with the same engine powerusing different fuel types. GHG emissions for Çorlu were calculated usingemission coefficients for; diesel, gasoline, heavy oil, light oil, natural gasfuels from literature sources. Maximum emission is found as 35 kg CO2-eq/ton, in case of using heavy oil in the 3.5 m3 vehicle and minimumemission is occurred 5,08 kg CO2-eqwhile using natural gas in 13+1,5 m3 truck. Contrary toexpectations, kg CO2-eq / ton value (which is show the GHG emissionrate) is decrease while the engine power (horsepower) increases. It has beendetermined that there are significant differences in GHG emissions when thetruck and/or fuel type are changed, even without changing factors such asroute, waste collection frequency and number of stops (number of containers).
