Do you think you will be able to catch the Peterbilt Heil Python in action? And jst this month they added 50,000 new homes to the program? I assume they needed new trucks for the job aswell? Or do they have enough to collect the new program area aswell as they previous recycling area?
Great job! So I'm guessing that the new Houston recycling trucks are green? When I passed through on I-10 a couple months back, I saw a ton of blue ASL's. Actually posted one on here that I saw on the interstate, not sure if you've seen it or not. This driver grabs really low on those carts... surprised the wheels aren't all broken.
Those Toter's are sturdy. And yeah, the blue ASL's are all garbage; Houston just started it's automated recycling program at the beginning of the year. They only have about 10 recycling ASL's right now. Everything else is collected on split-body recyclers or old rear loaders.
The participation rate for this community with the automated program has been hovering around 80%. Unheard of for Houston. And yes, it was a Zarn. You can find almost every type of cart around Houston. I've actually been surprised; they've been using the Toter EVR II for awhile now.

Nice find! Truck looks awesome! Auto recycling always seem to be successful these days, especially when it's single stream collection.
