Maxon ASL operated by Victorville Disposal

This is a 11 year old video. Narrations were done by 2 year old me sooooo be kind. Sooo...back to the video. This is an old Maxon ASL, I mean this thing was old 11 years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if it's still in operation somewhere. These arms are tons of trouble. You can see in the video that the driver has to raise the arm after each stop because it will just keep sliding down.

thats pretty awesome you have this video. neat to see these trucks when they were near new. They look awesome! Really slings lids open at times too. Bummer it wasnt of a victorville exclusive, a custom msl/asl conversion. That would have been pretty sweet as well!

@3amrepmike3 I'm currently freaking out because I have a video of a Shu-Pack conversion truck but I can't find the DVD that it's on. I'm also 90% sure I have a picture of a Heil F7000 with the funky grippers before it got a Sunbelt arm slapped on it. I'll continue searching. I have a couple pictures on my Flickr that might be a conversation.

@garbageboycd *conversion

[TheTrashman97]

same here, one yard helps the other

[garbageboycd]

@TheTrashman97 I mean, it's the same yard. Just some trucks say Victorville Disposal, some say Victorville Recycling, some say Victorville Disposal and Recycling and others say AVCO Disposal

[staintedcards]

he's right about those arms breaking alot always the pins that hold the arm in place break alot when it happens the whole thing comes crashing down and you either wait for the shop too come too the route or go back too the yard either way your down at least 1 hour maybe more

Very nice. Looked pretty good 'back in the day' :)

@garbageboycd yeah it too bad they dont have the conversions anymore because they are trying to modernize their fleet

[3amrepmike3]

@garbageboycd best of luck finding it! Id absolutely love seeing that!

[AlliedWaste76]

[garbageboycd]

@AlliedWaste76 CALM. DOWN. Thank you...

[garbageboycd]

@TheTrashman97 AVCO operates out of VictorVille Disposal. They are all Burrtec. Sometimes AVCO trucks do VV and sometimes VV does Apple Valley.

[TheTrashman97]

@garbageboycd well amrepmike record one about 2 months ago but its AVCO that has those hopper cover things so they still exist :)

@CurottoCanMaster82 Lol calm down...it's just a FUCKING AWESOME TRUCK! OMG!

[reyflow8]

@garbageboycd Ah k..

[garbageboycd]

@AlliedWaste76 Actually, that's why these arms are going extinct. They brake far too often and are difficult to repair. We had a sub-truck at LEAST once a month (That was actually a sub, I believe) and once they needed a sub-truck for the sub...soo yeah.
