I remember I used to see a lot of those yard waste Zarns with black lids up in San Pedro. All the bins used to be totally scattered around there, I just remember seeing bins all flipped upside down, lids torn off and halfway into the street...the trucks there were seriously violent. If you ever want Mack LEs I think the yard there at one point used to have some. It'd be a cool place to film.

Love lid flips like 3:07

It's neat when you put where it was filmed in the title...Nice work!!!

@Trashman242 thanks! yea theres some really violent trucks, but not all of them are that violent. I started puttn the region it was filmed in the title partly for my own sake remembering where I filmed it, and so people dont need to ask, In my volvo video from Angelino Heights, I got a repoter asking to use my video in a city wide publication about activities through the city, the author thought it was a neat hobby. I was happy to have it featured in a city publication

Clip starting at 4:13... plenty of garbage bins out the front... collection of townhouses I am guessing? I found a spot in Wollongong with shitloads of bins (and I mean shitloads of bins) lined up along a particular stretch of road... worth a look when it goes up =] Sweet footage! Keen gardeners in that last clip.

[3amrepmike3]

@MitchellM15 I definately will, and those gardeners at the end were Sean and I haha

[RainbowDisposal]

Damn good work, Mike. Fast and efficient trucks unlike the new ones Republic has.

Ah look at all the Zarns just chillin' in their natural habitat in the beginning of the video. It's too bad the one @ 1:08 will be in my backyard this summer. ROFL

[3amrepmike3]

@RainbowDisposal hahah thanks

[legodude24652]

Damn nice video. LA has bought what, 5 different carts now, rehrig, toter, roto, zarn, otto? Anything else?

[3amrepmike3]

@legodude24652 Heil, Roto, Reuter, Toter, Zarn, Plastopan, Scheafer (Wheelies) Otto (wheelies) Otto (Classics) and OP.

[100Burrtec100]

cool vid !! i was in chatsworth awhile ago and i noticed alot of the brown horse carts and i wondered how do they picked up ?

[3amrepmike3]

@100Burrtec100 Same as trash, greens and recycling, By a good ol Amrep ASL! I have plans to film that this summer. I know of an area with lines and lines of carts.

[100Burrtec100]

@3amrepmike3 awesome !! cant wait till you come out to fontana yup good old amrep lol

[trashmaster818]

nice! a pasadena and glendale cart at the end

[3amrepmike3]

@trashmaster818 you were right about the Glendale cart, but that is actually a City of LA Toter! thanks!

[trashman771]

nice job again!!! like that trash driver! really fast! like and fav

[3amrepmike3]

@trashman771 hes a great guy too. his truck is pretty damn fast when the auto rev kicks in

[trashman771]

@3amrepmike3 its a sick truck. like to see the zarns still left in that area. funny how the zarns have lasted longer than some of my rehrigs have

[3amrepmike3]

@trashman771 If LA never left Zarn Roto and Toter they would have a hell of a lot less cart replacing needed.... They shoulda gotten Zarn in all sizes though. Same with toter. The rotos were back when they only offered 90 gals so that wasnt an option lol

[trashman771]

@3amrepmike3 some of the platopans have lasted a while also. basically the rehrigs are made of cheap plastic. wish i could see that area with all the rotos! sounds dope! i remeber u got some video of a truck over ther a while ago

[r6man2]

Fantastic footage! Good to see some more LA action

[3amrepmike3]

@r6man2 thanks

[JaccobDalton]

Awesome!! All trucks have something unique about em. The driver 553 @ the end on greenwaste reminded me of Will in a way rofl i dont know why it just does!

[3amrepmike3]

@JaccobDalton thanks

[CurottoCanMaster82]

Great job! I really like the line of bins! Nice Zarns too! Can't wait to see some more!

[mtr82952]

Nicely done. Nice to see some Zarns left in this area. I wonder why some green Zarns wind up with black lids but there are no other brands with a different cart to lid color in LA (except for Seans toter near the end lol). Also he still has that Pasadena Toter (assuming it is the same one) wow! I wish LA would get Toters again. But I fear it will be another 5 years in hell with Rehrig.

[garbageboy2009]

@mtr82952 the zarns with black lids are the first zarns given out for greenwaste

[3amrepmike3]

@mtr82952 The toters and zarns have either black or green lids on them for yardwaste. Thats just they way they did things then.

[mtr82952]

@3amrepmike3 On alright, did they replace broken lids then or somthing so carts would wind up mis-matched?

[3amrepmike3]

@mtr82952 no they bought black lids on green carts for a long time then just went solid green for some reason

[mtr82952]

@3amrepmike3 Oh alright.

[MRGTMAN123]

nice!
