Here is another one of those big and blue Cleanaway trucks doing the heavy work by picking up the green-waste in Bankstown with a young Superior Pak side loader. This truck has got a nice sound to it, especially with that whistle coming from the exhaust during the roadside shot. We also get to see a packer cylinder extending and retracting... the service panel was missing :)

Cheers to the speedy operator of the truck, hope you enjoy the video, please rate and comment. Be sure to take a look at the videos of the speedy recycling truck and revving garbage truck at work.

Body Make: Superior Pak
Model: 29m Raptor
Chassis: Iveco Acco
Council: Bankstown City
Contractor: Cleanaway (Transpacific Industries)
Collection Type: Green-Waste / Vegetation

  • Very interesting catch! Love how the panel's missing, wish more trucks were like that LOL! Be neat to see a truck with exposed cylinder doing units (major hint ;)!!!! Didn't pick up on that 'whistle' you mentioned, prolly more evident in real life...All the same it was a great vid [5 'n fav!] :D

  • Thanks! Cool to have a little something extra to focus on and also get to see how fast the packer is operating :) Wonder where I'll find another raptor with an exposed cylinder on a unit run? ... that'll be a tricky find but will keep an eye out (wink). With that "whistle" (that I can't find the right word for), if you go to 2:15 you can hear the revs start up, it's that sort of start up sound I refer to, kinda... mm... then you can hear it when he takes off to the next bin... if you get me? :/

see all

  • Nice vid

  • If everyone does their job the world would be a better place.

  • The superiorPAK Truck grabbers sound weird, then to the Macdonald Johnston trucks which go ererererererererer erererer!!!!!

  • LOL!

  • haha Yer, been bugging me for a while now... might find the right word one day!

  • OHH ok, yeah 2:15 I know what you mean, that sort of 'heavy duty semi sound'...yeah don't know any better word than whistle, lol...hmm . . . can't think of anything, thought there was some word but maybe not. Thought that might've been what you were talking about lol, still can't think of the word for that and it's kinda bothering me lol!!

  • + you sort of imagine the trash (greens, rather) either falling off the packer into the bottom of the hopper or else getting packed....helps with the visual lol

    Yeah, couldn't exactly go out looking for one unless you knew EXACTLY where one with it missing operated...Just if you happen to find one I guess.

  • awwk no worries :)
