There were a number of Thursday afternoons where I managed to twist my way out of leaving school earlier than I was supposed, simply to capture more footage of the newer truck to the fleet. I must've been roaming around central Manly during 5-6 occasions trying to get the best footage of their Heil. Eventually one rainy afternoon I was finally satisfied with what I got and put these two videos together of the afternoon trade waste collection, starring truck #644. I hope you enjoy the action, and as usual please rate and comment. The mean Manly trucks will always be back on video... make sure you check out the heap of other Manly videos which are uploaded.

Body Make: Heil Environmental Industries
Model: 23m Formula 4000
Chassis: Iveco Acco
Contractor: Manly Waste
Collection Type: Mixed Commercial Waste

  • Whoa, killer opening shot coming waaayyyyy up that hill!

    Guys at 3:31 had great teamwork haha, one operates the winch while the other goes and attaches it! Different crews run this truck each week then? Not the same people as in the first shot..

    5:36 the bin says URM, do they own Manly Waste? And if not why are they collecting their bins lol?!

    Good commercial action, love seeing how well the two man crews work haha never wasting a second! Awesome post! Wait--that's not all, there's a part 2!!

  • @Trashman242 That first shot came out pretty well ey, I was walking down that hill one day and thought it would make a neat entrance shot. Generally the same crew each week, just depends on who is on holidays at the time. URM subcontracts their Manly area work to these guys as there are only a handful of jobs; though in the future URM might possibly own Manly Waste. Good old Manly Waste, going to miss their trade work; council recently axed the service :/

  • @MitchellM15 Oh wow, if the council just got rid of them does that mean URM sends its own trucks to Manly for trade waste? Or who does it now?

  • @Trashman242 I'm not sure what the deal is going to be with all Manly's trade work, because the council is still taking care of business themselves at the moment. I can imagine they will sell the whole department and there is a high chance URM will score. As for the few trucks, they might also be part of the acquisition or they might continue to be used in Manly, probably with this #644 used to replace one of the older residential trucks? If I had the money I would by Manly Waste lol :D

  • VERY GREAT for part 1. I've been wanting to see a rear loader on a commercial route for a very long time. Now off to part 2.

    Oh and how come the bins at the last stop had no lids? Vandalism?

  • @RainbowDisposal Thanks. Those bins at the end are used for public places - they're put in these special enclosures so they don't require lids.

see all

  • Bet they make a bit of Bung ......

  • @MitchellM15 Yeah lol, it'd be a good place to start :D

  • @MitchellM15 lol!!! Using the school camera!!! Thats great, I should have thought of that! I just chose to draw them instead.

  • @Superiorpakfan You're talking about all those 660Ls at the end right? They're actually public litter bins which are placed in those enclosures, so lids aren't necessary. Don't worry... Manly Waste does a good job =]
