Garbage Trucks

This video showcases the main trucks used for residential garbage and recycling collection in Kennewick, WA. First up we have a Wittke Starlight Front Loader on a Freightliner Condor chassis, outfitted with a Curotto Can II. Waste Management runs two of these in Kennewick. They were purchased in 2002/2003 to experiment with automated collection. The next truck in the video is a McNeilus M/A with the optional automated arm, mounted on a Freightliner Condor chassis. After success with the Curotto Can's, Kennewick went fully automated in 2005. Waste Management now runs 5 McNeilus M/A's on Freightliner Condors in Kennewick. The last truck in this video is a Dempster Recycle One mounted on a WhiteGMC Xpeditor WXLL chassis. Kennewick has been running two of these for recycling for at least 18 years now. The one featured in this video is a spare truck, and has hoppers on both sides of the body. The two regular Dempster Recycle One's in Kennewick only have hoppers on the curb side. Any questions, leave them down below in the comments. Be sure to "like"/favorite/comment and most importantly, ENJOY!

execellent footage!!! does wm run any chassis up in your area besides Condor and Volvo? Also do they have any rear loaders? And i hate how some of the Condors like the M/A squeek like a dying obese cat

@rws676 For residential it's all Volvo/WhiteGMC and Condor. However they have a Peterbilt rolloff, they recently got rid of a Mack MR rolloff, and all the septic trucks and the cart delivery truck are on Internationals. They used to have a couple RL's here before we went automated. One was a McNeilus RL on an International, the other was a Heil F5000 on a WhiteGMC WXLL

The tripod use, video title, and captions in the vid made this pop up in my mind: "brynwuzhere" lol

Great job. Love the roar of that Dempster too.

@lawnboy1010 The reason for no yard waste is because WM has outgrown the transfer station here. They need a new one anyway, but they have no way of handling separate yard waste at the current transfer station (it's small as hell) and the city is not being very cooperative about building a new transfer station. As soon as we get a new transfer station, I'd be willing to bet that there would be a yard waste service here.

Where are all the jobs for garbage men? :(

Hope we push traditional cans for creating/protecting local awesome manual labour jobs. :)

@TrashMonkey22 - That diversion rate isn't bad ! Here glass and everything else can go in one bin , or if you have a cart. Why doesn't WM there offer Yard Waste collection ?

@TrashMonkey22 LOL I can't stand natural gas. Imagine a propane truck
