Loved this video! I just had the need to look at how a garbage truck works, and I had no idea that in addition to the rear loader there are all those other type of garbage truck. those asl ones are freaky skynet shit!
you forgot about one-pass,i guess it's a fel but still different,what about lugger, current wm employee i hate it this video made me sick just seeing wm trucks dont know why i watched it.lol
@JTrepinski76 I have some newer video of a KANN Co-Collector on here somewhere. Can't remember if I included it in the newer 2nd version of this video. I've been looking for a lugger truck in my area, but they seem to be completely extinct... the only video I've seen of one on here was up in Canada... and I'm not going to drive that far. LOL
Great video I loved it. I remember as a little kid I used to go outside when I heard the truck and wait for the garbage truck to roll by each week. 30 plus years later when I hear the truck I am at least watching from the window. Those rear loaders are just mean. I don't think there is much that could stop that chomp !
@bassheadjohn It definitely takes some effort to stop a rear loader from eating. I had one struggle to break a very large piece of pressure treated lumber years ago.
@SynikaI I think someone else mentioned that on here too - I agree that's VERY ODD! LOL I don't think I have any tags on this video that would cause them to link to each other as being related.
@ScarletandGrey4ever Yeah I've heard of those, I've never seen one in person, but it's called the Heil MultiPack. I think there's only a couple of videos of them on YouTube, if you get the chance you should film one, there's MANY people on here that would appreciate seeing it. I don't think they sold very well... so they are pretty rare.
@PhysicsTowerTeam Also, you can watch my video: "E-Z Pack ASL Walk-around and Demo 1-28-11" to see an entire automated side loader in detail. This show's one manufacturers design and these designs vary from builder to builder. That truck has the rocker switches to control the arm.
Sorry, don't know much about these trucks. Does the driver look at the hooks via mirror, looking out the door, or is there a camera to help them align the 'hooks' with the can?
@PhysicsTowerTeam Depends on the truck, on older trucks the driver will typically use the circular "blind spot" mirror to see where the claw / grabber is in relation to the cart (garbage can). New trucks have a camera mounted near the arm so the driver can clearly see where the claw is.
These trucks are typically operated with 1 of 3 types of control - 1. single joy stick with buttons, 2. multiple levers, or 3. multiple rocker switches.
@Covermeporkins11 A few years back I didn't know there were so many either, and it seems like they are always trying out new designs... so they are always changing.
Watching this video has reminded me of how wasteful humans as a species are. This does not look good on our galactic resume! We humans truly are a curse on this planet. Great job!
@11Unlikeable11 This is true. I find it amazing that even when people are given an easy way to recycle some will still trash everything. The most disturbing thing I've seen in the garbage - full and unopened bottles of water. I know there are people in other countries that would literally kill each other for that water.... it's very sad that some people are wasteful to an extreme.
Being a picker on a garbage truck is a hard thankless job... The pays bad and its dangerous. I did it for almost a year, then on the second winter of hanging on the back of the trucks here in canada i said fuck it.
@TheHudzai Yeah most drivers leave the scraps behind, he was nice enough to rake up the remaining amount from the much larger pile that was originally there. So, no it's not like he stopped to pick up that tiny amount. LOL
This video is very helpful to me. Thank you! Now I can title, and label my truck videos more properly.I like when they compat the basketball hoop! Too cool. I got a video of a grease dump truck this morning, ( I do not know what the truck type is, it seems to be a special rear-loading grease dumper.)and when the guy got done dumping the dumpster, he peed on the back of his truck! Too funny! I bet I will never catch something like this again.
@domokid Actually I spotted him in a hardware store parking lot, he was trying to get to the neighboring store, but had to go back onto the highway to get there. So I only had to "stalk" him for all of a minute. If he noticed me during that short time, I'm willing to bet it did make him curious.
Working on a manual rear loader will fuck your body up, make you hate people, turn you into a nasty motherfucker and that's only after your first day!
@RandomConcepts This is why more and more cities are moving to a "Pay as you throw" system of garbage collection. Basically they charge you per bag of trash and take recycling for free.
@ryusanbusa This allows people to learn about the industry, I've used these videos as a networking tool to meet other drivers, manufacturers, dealers, and managers within the garbage industry - from all around the world.
@guitartrashman There's a group of drivers, fans, a couple manufacturers, and anyone else that is interested in the industry over on Flickr. I'll send you a link via PM.
@strangefire97 The driver had just finished picking up a huge pile of material, the small pile was created after he raked the remaining material into a small pile. This is called excellent customer service. I think he did a great job, he could have just left a mess after picking up the large pile, but he didn't.
@strangefire97 i havent watched this in awhile but i do this every day and the sticks and twigs fill the hopper and you cant fit any thing else in but its ok because it gets packed in there so tight by the end of the day that in the long run it dosent even matter if you run a small load up
somebody came into work today with a part off a truck he said was used at a waste water plant. he was saying that chains are involved and while it is in the process of dumping or lifting or something two pins come out and make it act like a dump truck. Does this sound at all familiur. he said it is pretty cool to watch and im just trying to find out what kind of truck it was
@pizzaisgood14 The only truck I can think of... off hand... in the solid waste industry, that uses chains would be a lugger truck. It uses chains to lift very large containers onto its bed. But I'm not 100% sure that was the truck the person was referring to. It is more likely that the truck is a grease or used cooking oil collection truck. I've got a really good picture of one somewhere on Flickr... send me a message if you really want to see it, I can send you the link.
@lordspyrox It was damaged. The video makes it look much better than it appeared in person. I'm surprised a scrap metal collector didn't grab it before the crew arrived.
@kissfanbilly Not actually, I don't believe he had any other tools aside from a rake. That pile in the clip is a small pile the driver created after he removed a much larger pile of brush. He actually raked up the remaining material and cleaned up the left over mess that many other drivers would simply ignore.
well i work on a back loader. we take every thing. i like that "slow down when you go around" iv only been doing this for 9 months and almost got hit about 50 times . maybe more! and people actually have got out of there cars to flip out on me! like they dont know where back there. its very degrading since i cant even say any thing back without losing my job. i been spit at on christmas, please be nice to the garbage man! its a hard job
@Gdelikatny : well in all fairness they have to know that its garbage, we cant just go around thorwing things in like bikes, hoops, garbage cans ppl dont want, and any thing else u might find by a curb. just leave a note or come out and ask them to take it.. thats the only way we can take things that can frequently be found by curbs. otherwise ppl wouylb be much more upset then if we didnt take it.......valid point?
@SuperHighDIZZYguy : and u would think the basket ball net coulda been salvaged .i constantly find things that arent garbage and cant keep. take it to a flee market or a pawn shop or donate or somthing!
@SuperHighDIZZYguy Valid point. This video reminds me of the old days. Around here if it doesnt fit in the garbage or recycling bin can they wont take it. I was admiring the routine perserverence as they gobble this thing up for the landfill.
We dont see that kind of stuff here in our city anymore so it was cool to watch. They went to automated trucks, 2 recycle bins per family and diverted 75% of household waste away from the landfills, an Impressive success.
@Gdelikatny Sorry to see that they won't take large items by the curb, do you get a "clean-up day" at least? Clean-up days allow customers to put almost anything curbside at least once every year - usually on a predetermined date.
@FormerWMDriver really because he would love that... hes 2 yrs old, and we put him in from of this video and he just sits and watches it for hours... as long as we keep replaying it!!! LOL
@MultiMonster I doubt the driver noticed the door falling off because he could not see it when it fell and because the door is mounted on the outside of the dumpster he would just think the door was in the open position when he set the dumpster back down.
@msnpassjan2004 You are probably right, but I did give this driver the link to find the original video, so if he watched it at a later date, he probably knows now.
Ok so my girlfriends nephew is only 2 years old and Let me tell you that he gets a kick out of watching trash truck videos he sits at the desk watching video after video gettin excited when a trash truck throws trash away its like a sport to him i guess lol good job on posting the videos made my girlfriends job of watching him so easy lol
@rainbowbabe87 LOL - Glad I could keep him entertained. I just finished a 2nd video like this one - "TYPES OF 'GARBAGE TRUCKS' 2" and it's twice as long. Should keep him busy for almost 20 mins. LOL =)
This was an educational video, thanks! We just got a rear-loader garbage truck toy for our boy and he couldn't figure out how it worked. The last part of your video solved that mystery. (He concluded that it was far less automated than expected). We also saw the garbage bin lose its window at 3:04!

@SuperHighDIZZYguy Valid point. This video reminds me of the old days. Around here if it doesnt fit in the garbage or recycling bin can they wont take it. I was admiring the routine perserverence as they gobble this thing up for the landfill.
We dont see that kind of stuff here in our city anymore so it was cool to watch. They went to automated trucks, 2 recycle bins per family and diverted 75% of household waste away from the landfills, an Impressive success.

@Gdelikatny Sorry to see that they won't take large items by the curb, do you get a "clean-up day" at least? Clean-up days allow customers to put almost anything curbside at least once every year - usually on a predetermined date.

@robot7070 I'm not driving at the moment but in about 2 weeks I'll be behind the wheel of a truck - most likely a recycling truck.

@MultiMonster I doubt the driver noticed the door falling off because he could not see it when it fell and because the door is mounted on the outside of the dumpster he would just think the door was in the open position when he set the dumpster back down.
msnpassjan2004 1 year ago
@msnpassjan2004 You are probably right, but I did give this driver the link to find the original video, so if he watched it at a later date, he probably knows now.

@MultiMonster69 Thank you, that was unplanned and happened by pure luck. When I saw the truck that was one of the first stops I saw it collect.

@nick14877 The City of Tallahassee, FL use to run ASL's with large crews like that.

@nick14877 I'm guessing you didn't like the overall operation of the truck by the driver? Or did you not like the paint job?

This was an educational video, thanks! We just got a rear-loader garbage truck toy for our boy and he couldn't figure out how it worked. The last part of your video solved that mystery. (He concluded that it was far less automated than expected). We also saw the garbage bin lose its window at 3:04!
