here in greece we still use this type of rotopress refuse trucks!it is a technology that remains the same all through this years!

To look at them they remind me of the old covered wagon of the old west.Strange but very interesting trucks...

also, thats a pretty good fast ejection cycle huh?!

The tandem axel!!! Love seeing these! The Kuka design (or any other rotating drum design) seems to handle large commercial loads better than most other rear loader designs. Man I wish they had some of these in America!!

They did back in the late 1960's and early 1970's. Potentially, one may be still resting somewhere in a junkyard in the eastern U.S. !

Yeah, someone should go look
