The collection stage: The process of gathering and picking up and consolidating waste from various areas within a facility. It involves physically collecting garbage, emptying trash bins, and consolidating waste materials to prepare them for proper disposal or recycling.
The storage stage: Temporarily placing the collected waste in designated containers or storage areas before it is moved for final disposal or recycling. During this stage, the janitorial team stores the gathered waste in a secure and organized manner, ensuring that it is properly contained until it can be taken to the next step in the waste management process, the removal stage.
The removal stage: Where the waste, which has been collected and stored by the janitorial team, is taken away from the facility. The waste hauler is responsible for physically transporting the accumulated waste to its final destination, which could include a landfill, recycling facility, or other appropriate disposal sites.
Movement Stage: The physical transportation or relocation of collected waste throughout a facility. A team consolidates the gathered waste and transports it from various areas within the facility to a storage area or removal area.

Movement can only exist between stages, and can be used more than once in a flow
