The Last EDCO ADR recycler--in action!

Seeing this truck brought back memories...I got extremely lucky and managed to find what probably is the last ADR recycler in EDCO's fleet that is still used, collecting trash at a missed stop. They used this truck for about 5 months doing missed stops, but now even IT is no longer at the Escondido yard and in use. I have no idea where it's at, what the status of this truck is. Now they have one of the smaller MSLs doing missed stops and public litter bins.

Wow, great find! These ADR recyclers have always fascinated me, though very few are left operating. It is sad to see this one go :( Is ADR still in business?

@GatorJake12 I highly doubt it, I think ADR was only around through the '90s

You know Scott... That is the first time I've ever seen one of those in action.

@shadofax96 Yep, and it was quite a reunion for me too.

@1985jon Early '90s probably/late '80s

I would give anything for a nice pic of the LA recycler we had the Wayne body on the White chassis, WXLL. Even if any are surviving to see it in action would mean the world. IF anyone has knowledge of fate of our old recyclers here in LA, do let me know plz. thnx.
