My sons watched this video about a hundred times when they were younger. Today I was running errands with my oldest, now 15 y.o. We saw a front loading garbage truck and both watched in awe... And he asked me if I remember the video I used to let him watch in YT and that he'd like to rewatch it. So here I am, I found it right away, and sent him the link. 🥰
My two year old son is enthralled with your garbage truck videos! He anyways runs to the window in the morning to watch the trash get picked up. Thanks for uploading!
Dude, guess what!? If you go to the Waste Collection Vehicle entry on Wikipedia, it links up this video right in the first section of the entry, to show the different kinds of North American Garbage Trucks! Just thought I'd let ya know!
This was an educational video, thanks! We just got a rear-loader garbage truck toy for our boy and he couldn't figure out how it worked. The last part of your video solved that mystery. (He concluded that it was far less automated than expected). We also saw the garbage bin lose its window at 3:04!
Wow in my area if you put out something big like that basketball hoop to be picked up, they would leave it. We would also get a warning note telling us not to put items of a certain size or weight in the trash. So then you have to remove what ever it is and wait another week for your garbage to get picked up.
I can't wait to see the newest addition! I hope I'll have some time to sit down and watch it... I've been struggling lately to keep up with everything.
That thing they used to do with the roll off trucks where they basically do a dumpster transfer at a dumping site no longer happens. Today, Instead, they would open the back manually and empty out the contents of the dumpster on/in the dumping grounds.
FormerWMDriver, we have 2 garbage companies in Fort Frances, 1 is Asselin Transportation and Dennis Robinson. We only have rear loaders, front end and roll off, but we used to have those curb sort recycling truck
My 2 year old son loves watching your video. He requests it all the time. It makes all that more exciting when he sees the garbage truck pick up in our neighborhood.
8:06 I remember when a garbage truck took are basketball hoop Which was in perfect condition and was also sitting far away from our actual garbage. My mom contacted the garbage company that took the basketball hoop and they said that it wasn’t their problem and that they couldn’t help us get the basketball hoop back.
Thereby a 20 foot shipping container with rolloff frame can only be 70 cm overhang, but if you put it on a flatbed and strap it down, you can have 2 m overhang if you mark it with cones. By the way, the cones must be replaced with flashing lights if driving in dark hours. Non-commercial cars (and their trailers) can markup oversize loads with a dangling cloth, piece of plastic or similar that will catch attention from other traffic.
@lordspyrox It was damaged. The video makes it look much better than it appeared in person. I'm surprised a scrap metal collector didn't grab it before the crew arrived.
I saw WSTPRO IHC S series CD truck just like that in Bradenton when I was departing. Was gonna film it but wasn't in the mood cause I was coming back from railfanning by Tropicana! There no more MSLs where I live & didn't know that WSI was in your area picking up trash! I have full respect for every type of trash truck no matter what it is! But the RL will always be my fav type of trash truck! Great Work, 5*!
Great video I loved it. I remember as a little kid I used to go outside when I heard the truck and wait for the garbage truck to roll by each week. 30 plus years later when I hear the truck I am at least watching from the window. Those rear loaders are just mean. I don't think there is much that could stop that chomp !
@imstm Yeah many places are automating collection, but I think rear loaders will always be around because some area's are really difficult to service with ASL's.
@RandomConcepts This is why more and more cities are moving to a "Pay as you throw" system of garbage collection. Basically they charge you per bag of trash and take recycling for free.
I would think they'd be more popular too, it seems like the best option for customer service and keeping the labor to a minimum. Between a M/ASL and a grapple, I think you could get everything on a route and both of these trucks are great for one person operation - and that would keep costs down.
I think that WSI truck was "passing by." It looked like it was in transit from one location to another... I know that there's NO WSI in Brevard, but they have contracts in Orange County. Thanks for the stars!
somebody came into work today with a part off a truck he said was used at a waste water plant. he was saying that chains are involved and while it is in the process of dumping or lifting or something two pins come out and make it act like a dump truck. Does this sound at all familiur. he said it is pretty cool to watch and im just trying to find out what kind of truck it was
@tatomuck18 This video is actually several clips from many of my videos. These clips were shot in Florida, Virginia, and Maryland. Garbage trucks usually smell bad, but they smell like money to me (I'm hoping to return to the garbage industry after I finish with college). In some places the automated trucks are replacing the manual collection trucks. It depends on the area, some places are difficult to automate.
The automated slide loader's like "I'll be back" 1:30 looks like an accident waiting to happen 3:04 That's interesting the flaps usually on roll off garbage trucks 5:14 Why toss it though
this had to be one of the best explanations to the waste industry as far as equipment goes in a 10 minute vid it was so good i had to download it ;) great job al!
My dad was a roll off driver for 20+ years. I remember him telling stories of new drivers being killed when the container would flip off the side during loading
Man, what a dinosaur that grey FL truck is - and I've never seen a single axle FL truck either! Mechanical lids are ancient history. Talk about power line collectors.
I remembered how scary rear loader trucks are holy crap...it just destroyed that basketball hoop which really didn't even look like it was broken or anything..
Yes a perfectly serviceable basketball hoop, what a waste. Of course it may look impressive but bending that tubing takes very little force compared to that available (around 40 tonnes I estimate). It's analogous to it being impressive for the human hand to crush a beer can.
@bassheadjohn It definitely takes some effort to stop a rear loader from eating. I had one struggle to break a very large piece of pressure treated lumber years ago.
eXACTOcREATION to the gym today and I don't know think about it is a good time to go be with you or urban in a year and the rest is history the best way
@kissfanbilly Not actually, I don't believe he had any other tools aside from a rake. That pile in the clip is a small pile the driver created after he removed a much larger pile of brush. He actually raked up the remaining material and cleaned up the left over mess that many other drivers would simply ignore.
Yeh well I can't wait to upload it; has been sitting on my computer for well over two years now as I've been gradually adding pictures and making some adjustments... will also allows me to organise a particular folder after I upload. I noticed you haven't been on the videos as much, but I understand where you're coming from... during the last fortnight of last term I managed to sign in twice because of lots of exams, assignments, work and everything that goes with it... life can get busy hey?
@bartjoebob I seriously doubt that driver is unionized. That was shot in the south.... and I know that my old yard refused the union, in a different part of the state.
The Rolloff driver was fired for equipment abuse! #1 never slack off a cable fully. # 2 dropped a full box 2 feet off the tail of the truck, and took off in to high a gear causing wheel hopping damaging the drive line. As of 7/28/2018 the cost of a 20 yd rolloff box is $3500.00 I have a 1 year old box that was dropped like that and is a complete rite off. That driver was also fired.
@pizzaisgood14 The only truck I can think of... off hand... in the solid waste industry, that uses chains would be a lugger truck. It uses chains to lift very large containers onto its bed. But I'm not 100% sure that was the truck the person was referring to. It is more likely that the truck is a grease or used cooking oil collection truck. I've got a really good picture of one somewhere on Flickr... send me a message if you really want to see it, I can send you the link.
@MultiMonster I doubt the driver noticed the door falling off because he could not see it when it fell and because the door is mounted on the outside of the dumpster he would just think the door was in the open position when he set the dumpster back down.
@pipergirl7 Thank you very much! I'm really glad he enjoys it. =) If he gets bored with this one, I have tons of other garbage truck videos on my channel page.
This video is very helpful to me. Thank you! Now I can title, and label my truck videos more properly.I like when they compat the basketball hoop! Too cool. I got a video of a grease dump truck this morning, ( I do not know what the truck type is, it seems to be a special rear-loading grease dumper.)and when the guy got done dumping the dumpster, he peed on the back of his truck! Too funny! I bet I will never catch something like this again.
My sons watched this video about a hundred times when they were younger. Today I was running errands with my oldest, now 15 y.o. We saw a front loading garbage truck and both watched in awe...

My two year old son is enthralled with your garbage truck videos! He anyways runs to the window in the morning to watch the trash get picked up. Thanks for uploading!
Oops, I guess I missed a milestone! lol I'm impressed, didn't expect this to be a crowd favorite so fast.
You still alive 11 years later?
Who else saw at 3:03 when he threw out the door on the bin?
Mental, cant believe he did that and didn't even notice!! 😂😂😂
3:03 oh I saw it.
I think he noticed but didnt care. Because they have a camera where he can see what is thrown in the hopper.
Wait what LOL why didn’t the time stamp work
Dude, guess what!? If you go to the Waste Collection Vehicle entry on Wikipedia, it links up this video right in the first section of the entry, to show the different kinds of North American Garbage Trucks! Just thought I'd let ya know!
The long-awaited crossover.

I can't wait to see the newest addition! I hope I'll have some time to sit down and watch it... I've been struggling lately to keep up with everything.
I remember watching this video when I was a kid at 3:03 the dumpster door would go inside the garbage truck, it would always make me wonder why
Yeah, the first time I ever saw that, I was stunned at how easy the truck will eat large items like that. Glad you liked the video!
That thing they used to do with the roll off trucks where they basically do a dumpster transfer at a dumping site no longer happens. Today, Instead, they would open the back manually and empty out the contents of the dumpster on/in the dumping grounds.
I want to say, I found your vids a while ago. My son, who's almost 2 LOVES trash trucks. And will sit there and watch your videos over and over!
That's awesome! Thank you very much! I hope he continues to enjoy the videos.
tell your son hes a garbage truck veteran and send him this video
He's 8 now
our 3 year old is crazy about this video!! We don't have many of these trucks in The Netherlands so it's even more exciting for him.
FormerWMDriver, we have 2 garbage companies in Fort Frances, 1 is Asselin Transportation and Dennis Robinson. We only have rear loaders, front end and roll off, but we used to have those curb sort recycling truck
Best garbage truck video ever! My two-year-old son cries when it's over. Amazing bit when they feed in the basketball pole.
My 2 year old son loves watching your video. He requests it all the time. It makes all that more exciting when he sees the garbage truck pick up in our neighborhood.
Thanks, LOL glad you liked that... if you want to see more of that truck, I can "share" that vid with you... or you can just search for "FIT PakMor"

Thank you I'm glad you liked seeing this one! Thanks for the stars and fav!
You are very welcome! I'm glad they enjoy it!
Thanks, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
lol yep! Thanks for watching.
Great job driver! I worked 22 years in solid waste, mostly driving a rear end loader. Also drove roll off as well.
@lordspyrox It was damaged. The video makes it look much better than it appeared in person. I'm surprised a scrap metal collector didn't grab it before the crew arrived.
I've seen a garbage truck that had a big bin on the front (permanently fixed, not a dumpster) AND a side loader arm.
I looked it up. I think it may be "curroto can"
I saw WSTPRO IHC S series CD truck just like that in Bradenton when I was departing. Was gonna film it but wasn't in the mood cause I was coming back from railfanning by Tropicana!
There no more MSLs where I live & didn't know that WSI was in your area picking up trash!

Thanks man! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I always like watching your local trucks too.
@promise72 Depends on the type of truck, manufacturer, etc... but most of these are around $200,000.00 brand new.
The most informative and influential video ever.
@imstm Yeah many places are automating collection, but I think rear loaders will always be around because some area's are really difficult to service with ASL's.
@KLsemperFi7 Thank you very much! Glad you've enjoyed the videos, I haven't had much time to get new stuff, but I'm hoping to get something new soon.
That would be an honor if this made it to #1 for "Garbage Trucks" Thanks for the stars and fav!
HAHA! The side door on the dumpster at 3:01 FELL IN THE TRUCK!!!
@RandomConcepts This is why more and more cities are moving to a "Pay as you throw" system of garbage collection. Basically they charge you per bag of trash and take recycling for free.
Goodbye door 3:04

@mtr82952 Thanks! Glad you still enjoy the video. I may have to make an updated one eventually.
@stickmaster771 You are very welcome! Thanks for letting me know, glad he enjoys the video.
them packer blades or compacters have a crushing power of 8000psi or more that can crush almost anything
Thank you Kenny! Glad you enjoyed the vid! Thanks for the stars and fav.
My 20 month son loves your series. Bama! He says. Great films. Thanks! A good break from Caillou .
I think that WSI truck was "passing by." It looked like it was in transit from one location to another... I know that there's NO WSI in Brevard, but they have contracts in Orange County. Thanks for the stars!
@vivitar45 I agree it's always best to reduce the amount of waste being taken to a landfill.
@UltimateCODkiller Not sure what you are referring to - at 0:20 the truck collects the cart that is shown.
somebody came into work today with a part off a truck he said was used at a waste water plant. he was saying that chains are involved and while it is in the process of dumping or lifting or something two pins come out and make it act like a dump truck.

ur welcome! for all ur work u have done to bring us all on youtube the world of garbage trucks awesome work!
I find this video strangely fascinating. I had no idea there were so many different types.
my three year old son loves this video
@marybob321 You are welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! =)
After one year I still frequentaly go back to this vid, once again teriffic work Alan
Now that's a lot of trucks in action in one video! Nice compilation!
LOL If you can defeat the evil "packer blade" monster that rules the inside of the truck, you'd be captain of the ship. =)
Man, what a dinosaur that grey FL truck is - and I've never seen a single axle FL truck either! Mechanical lids are ancient history. Talk about power line collectors.

Love watching rear loaders crush huge stuff.
My almost 3 year old is obsessed with recycle and garbage trucks. Glad I found your video!
That basket ball goal looked perfectly fine...would be funny if it wasnt actually garbabe.
@bassheadjohn It definitely takes some effort to stop a rear loader from eating. I had one struggle to break a very large piece of pressure treated lumber years ago.
@bexnew6 I'm very happy to see that! Thanks for watching!
oOOPS, The side door fell off the one container

@GrootGuy Republic Services (operated under the AAA Trash brand name) Mack LE / Heil PowerTrak rear loader.
@gertgertgert18 I think everything in that load was going to a transfer station and then to a landfill in Brevard County, FL.
They even took the Basketball Goal, homies don't play around I'd it's on the curb it's gone!!

Awesome vids. I'm a commercial swing driver in Indy for WM. I wish somebody would start a trash truck drivers forum.
Now alan I will know what a garbage truck looks like now LOL That way I won't pass any by mistake.Great video...
Thanks for making this. My kids love it!
@bartjoebob I seriously doubt that driver is unionized. That was shot in the south.... and I know that my old yard refused the union, in a different part of the state.
my 5 year old brother loves ur vids thank u
Wow looks like you respond to pretty much everyone, love the hustle!
I'm blown away. I had no idea that they could demolish a basket ball pole like that.
@Rodenrijzeres Very cool! I'm glad he enjoys the video! Hopefully I can make another one soon.
in movies i see rear loaders and they are my favourite.. but the only garbage truck i seen in person are automated side loaders
@DTomate Glad your 3yo is enjoying the video! Thanks for letting me know!
Well, thank you! It'll be interesting to see how high it climbs.
5:01 my town is literally crawling with these.
The Rolloff driver was fired for equipment abuse! #1 never slack off a cable fully. # 2 dropped a full box 2 feet off the tail of the truck, and took off in to high a gear causing wheel hopping damaging the drive line.

i'm stoned and i'm watching a video about garbage trucks, I love life
These guys are too, they stole the Basketball Goal damn guy's!
@@nicke1903 and they threw away part of the garbage container at 3:04 😂
I could have used that basketball goal. UGH. LOL
@pipergirl7 Thank you very much! I'm really glad he enjoys it. =) If he gets bored with this one, I have tons of other garbage truck videos on my channel page.
@curotto7451 You are very welcome! I'm glad he enjoys them!
@hddr3 Oh ok. I've noticed that the types of trucks used vary from place to place.
