Great vid my father is a garbage man he works on a leach... i love going on the truck with him ill try to get a video up,..

[Trashman242]

Cool! I'd like to see it!

[Wmdude1998]

Hey its USMCboy4298... My new account... Anyways i asked for a camcorder for christmas... hopefully i get it Ill try to get some Leach/Mack Mr footage and some Heil 5000 Action on a Mack MR

[Trashman242]

I noticed you closed your new account...tell me if you get any of that footage!

[trashmonster26]

Do you think you could post a vid of the packmor rl doing trash or recycleing

[Trashman242]

I might be able to EVENTUALLY get one of a PakMor doing trash, but they don't ever do recycling as far as I know.

[Wmdude1998]

Well i got a cam so working on getting some footage mostly on the weekend maybe some city footage

[Trashman242]

Yep, gotta agree with you there, gotta love full manual collection! I think that's pretty dumb making the law on no RL steps there, seems that fewer workers get hurt riding them than running across the street constantly + trying to keep up with and ahead of the truck going to the next bin...just glad they still have steps and everything here!!

[james090383]

good old fashioned manual labour! good on the people for having a seperate green waste collection! like how the feller can ride on the back too, that's illegal over here in UK, they taken the fun out of the job, bin men have never had it so easy with all the lifting equipment and wheeled bins! Bring back ALL the manual labour i say, then i'd feel PAYING COUNCIL TAXES is worth it! the trucks wouldn't cost so much money either just having the old open back style!

[Trashman242]

Yeah, it's got the same sort of design as the IRL. I wouldn't be surprised if these CCCs had Cats running in them, sure sound nice though don't they?

Not sure about people bagging grass, most just don't give a crap I guess lol....extra work. Also, most of this is used for compost, so therefore they don't allow bags in the greens (the plastic makes it less valuable).

[Trashman242]

ESD doesn't, if that's what you're asking...

[bitterman112]

That packmor RL tailgate looks closely identical to the old CCC IRL trucks that I used to see! In addition, that CCC chassis sounds like it has a 3206 cat diesel engine! I'm baffled that theydon't bag their grass clippings!

[Trashman242]

lol I know

[Dan19the89man]

i hated to pick up those grass can when it was raining or those idiots that puts fucking dirt and rocks

[Trashman242]

Thanks! Just wish I had gotten pics. Nowadays I always get pics in addition to video, particularly if it's a truck I don't get to see too often...

[packerblade]

this is a great combo, you really captured it well

[arkansastrash320]

I am not sure but i think he meant gas generated from the green waste.But hey seems like garbage would create more gas than green waste.

[nirvanaisreached]

man if i was that guy i d run the can threw. i hate brush in cans

[Ferretguy55]

hahahah lol in begining

[rws676]

NICE PAKMOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Trashman242]

Not everyone has the room for all of it...I used to (with all the grass clippings), but I didn't need the composted grass (soil). Some people produce too much greens to be able to compost it all. The nice part is that they grind it all up and compost it once they collect the greens.

[wildb1]

i hate yard waste people need to learn to compost.

[Trashman242]

well, yeah but any truck risks that. trucks containing greens do more than regular trash trucks but trash still has the chance of burning.

[Scorge120]

no but if a fire were to break out and make its way into the body, then you might have a problem depending on the contents in there.

[Trashman242]

lol nope, as you can see...the body itself doesn't have gas in it...?
