I actually really like the POV camera. It shows us everything that you have to do when collecting trash.
Try and use a chest mounted camera next time??
@@tristanpolnerlannonyear5387I agree 👍🏻
Glad that a fire did not start. Please listen to my recommendation and get a 20lb ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher and vehicle bracket for the truck. Safety first! Not trying to be annoying in any way just want to make sure the truck and you guys are safe.
Your comments were the ones running through my head that I mentioned!😆
That POV mount is really cool, I understand the motion sickness part for some people but it seems like a couple people really enjoy it. It gives more angles than the fixed angle ever could. Thanks for trying it out!
I really like the POV setup. I wasn’t sure what I’d think but I think it’s probably the best angle we’ve had thus far!
I prefer the POV setup. To me it has never bothered me as far as motion sickness or anything. But I am thankful any way you bring us along with you whether fixed cam or POV.
Huge respect for taking the time to save the lizard. Speaks volumes about your character.
Love the POV view, please do some more in the future. Also, just be careful parking in grass, don't want to see you get stuck or get a complaint from a customer about tire marks in the grass.
I don’t know if you used this setting or not but the hyper smooth setting on the GoPro really smooths out the head movement. It’s what other people use and their pov content comes out really smooth. Great video!
Hi Brad, been here since week one of trash pick up and love your videos. I actually do like the POV cam more then I expected, maybe maybe in the future (I know its a lot of extra editing work) a truck mounted view and a POV view in one video would be an idea with then 2 cams. Also I enjoy the "new equipment" section of the video. Thank you for the content and have a great day!
Hi Brad, the gopro look I find really great. I can see why some people don’t like it but please do some more videos with it, it is really nice view and with that view we can see what you see and we see more of the surroundings . A tip: maybe buy a sort of picker thing so that you don’t need to lean in the thrash can for if something stays in the can. Because if I see you lean in a can to get something, I think: “Please keep your back in a good condition”. I think that it is bad for your back if you are going to get more clients / more cans. So maybe buy a “big fork” / trash picker thing. BUT most important, keep up the good work ❤❤❤. Kind regards, Broodje
I think I like the POV more maybe what you could do is you could do it how you did ASMR no talking and talking when you had the dump trailer but what you could do is one video is what we used to have a mounted to the truck and then you could do the POV if that that’s too much work you could just keep it to where everybody else likes but that’s my opinion. I hope he reads this. I love your videos. I wait every day and I hope no other storms affect you.
Probably nobody cares, but my grandpa just passed two weeks ago and his name was Milton. I thought it was a coincidence
I love the pov view! In CA trash companys have to offer recycling and green organics pickup and every house has to have a green and blue can. our disposal company EDCO charges $80 per month for a 95-gall recycling cart and $40 per month for a 64-gall green cart.
When I worked at a wastewater plant, they would buy me good gloves. I found that Wells Lamount had a great glove that was rubber dipped with a nice soft liner that reached to my elbow. In the winter, I would wear cotton jersey gloves inside of them. They would get to stinking after several months. I found these gloves at our local Rural King. I have also found them at Lowes. Keep up the good work.
Oh i waited so long for a POV VIdeo, can you maybe upload it the same as the asmr stuff, like onbe mounted and one pov if you dont want to smitch or so. If it isnt to much time obviously. Or like switch every few weaks maybe. The Pov style is liked by many. Its more interesting to see the stuff around the truck and not yust the garbage by its own. Good Video
As I have commented to you in the past. As soon as you determine you have a fire in the body, you need to dump wherever you are. Don’t try to move to try to find some kind of better place. It won’t take long for a fire to disable the hydraulics and then you can’t dump. The fire department needs to be able to pull the load apart to fully extinguish the fire. They can’t do that if it’s compacted in the body and you can’t dump because the hydraulic system is destroyed. You would be responsible for cleaning afterwards but at least you would have the truck to reload. You could use a skid steer loader if you have one or rent one if you don’t.
I really like the pov setup too, and would definitely watch it again if you made another. Maybe a good compromise would be to do the pov every so often for those who like it and the fixed mount the rest of the time.
Love the content! I’d like to see a vid of you cleaning the truck at the end of the day. The trucks that pick up my garbage don’t look like they’ve ever been cleaned.
Parking in that ditch is just beggin for trouble, that's a tip over risk if steep enough, and high potential of getting stuck, and having to pay for a tow and yard repair
Also if ground wet could get truck stuck in it
Yep, there's a reason garbage trucks have flashing hazards and Florida law allows them to stay in the traffic lane...
@@Awesomewolfpic My point exactly, coming from a guy who got a bus stuck
@@cup_and_cone park anywhere lights
I thought the POV angle was great. But you're the one who puts in all the work and is dealing with camera setup and such so whatever is best for you. The fixed view ones are fine too.
For recycling basically all your customers already have the option to recycle by using that free public drop-off trailer for recyclables at the landfill. That's fairly standard in many more rural places around the US. IMO if commenters really want your customers to have a curbside recycle option then they're welcome to get their own truck and try running their own service for recycling pickup in Baker County 😀
The POV really is tough to watch - you're right. Hey, thanks for the tool share. That Etenwolf is a great idea for weekend travel.
I know You have mentioned down the line doing a bin cleaning service now rhat you are not using liners. Not sure if your cans are getting super dirty yet but you could probably offer bin cleaning out if the back of your old trailer. Would just take a big water tank (300ish gallons) and power washer with some cleaning solution. Maybe you dont neesiscarily need a whole specialized bin cleaning truck to start offering that service. Simmilarly to how you started on a small scale with the trash pickup.
I think since you do pull over on the other side of the road sometimes. to help people see you easier in the early morning you should get some magnetic or mounted, flashing yellow lights like you’ve had for the dump trailer and put them on the front so people can see you easier when they’re coming toward you when it’s dark.
Parking in the opposing lane is ALWAYS better than crossing the road. The truck literally has flashing lights and is super visible (at least I think it has flashers in the front too), there's nothing better than that to protect you. Also, always completely block the lane. Don't give people just enough room to pass with two vehicles at a time, because they will do it and they won't slow down. It may feel bad to block traffic like that, but inconveniencing somebody once for a minute is so much better than you getting hit by a car.
It would be great if you had bright LED lights reflecting on the both sides of your truck to give you full visibility around the truck at night.
It would be great for your safety and for others to see you from a mile away.
Awesome video! That is another thing to always be prepared for, a fire. Btw if you did have to dump the trash for some reason, you could use the dump trailer to clean it up. Keep up the great work and videos!
Brad, the thing with the possible fire makes me nervous for you as well.
I don't know what it's like in your area concerning lithium batteries. In our market, the municipal trash restricts lithium batteries being put in trash. They must be taking to a special disposal place, for I'm guessing this very reason.
My suggestion would be to talk to your local fire department, and ask them what procedures you want to take, if this is a risk.
I think it would be reasonable, in my opinion, not to accept lithium batteries that could catch fire.
Again, I would talk to others, and get what's industry standard in your market.
I really hope this helps you!
I want you to be successful in this endeavor!
I haven't seen a maintenance video, just a friendly reminder Don't forget the grease
Looks like your getting much better at developing a system that works for your setup. I would recommend getting a head lamp so that you can see better in the dark.
have you thought of haveing another team with more bins out but collecting garden waste? that would be good to watch
I liked the POV . Also like the new tool/equipment segment as well. That negative comment is just your typical jealous hater troll. Anyone who owns any type of equipment and or trucks whines & complains all the time. It’s part of the business lol. As a trucker I whine & cry all the time 😂
Glad to hear you and the wife are safe. It might be over kill but like others have said I would get a 20 pound dry chemical AND CO2 extinguisher. Better to have over kill then not enough. You could offer bulk pick up for a few to help pay the truck off faster. Just a idea.
love the fpv or whatever it's called. I don't think it would be a good idea in the case of a fire to open the thing up, probably the best thing to do is dial FD, maybe spray extinguisher from outside, get the truck away from hazards, and just wait. opening the thing would just feed the fire
Have you ever thought about uploading the voice overs only? I know you did a couple that were just working asmr style. I know that I would listen to the voice overs on my way to work and what not.
I would keep the POV camera view. It’s better for showing what the levers and buttons do on the side of the truck. Additionally, it is better for filming at night.
I have a Ryobi tyre inflator and even though it states not for use on commercial vehicles, it has inflated the tyre on my 3.2 ton van, but on the 4 ton minibus I drive for a job.
Hey Brad! Loving this series so far!
Glad a fire didn’t start on your truck!
I can speak from experience it’s not fun lol. On my 2006 Peterbilt 379 the starter shorted out and caught fire. But luckily I was able to save it. Needless to say I got a few extra extinguishers after I got the truck back from the shop😂🧐
I hear some lawn care people will send out thank you cards each Christmas season. Customers send back tips.
You guys should get a dash cam just to be on the safe side there’s always crazy drivers out there
We had the same experience re Milton in Port St. Lucie.
buddy i see you parking a lot in the grass! Tip don't do that when the grass is wet becose the tires will sink and then you will be stuck
MIGHT THINK ABOUT MORE LIGHTS ON PASANGER SIDE OF THE BED / AN CAB looked A little DARK GREAT VIDEOS
6:50 I’m surprised you don’t have some wide angle work lights to show the curb better.
GREAT JOB ON THE AIR COMP. YOUR WORK IS GREAT YOU GOT IT TOGETHER LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
How much is one bin?
love the pov cam
I like the pov I hope you keep doing it
I prefer the POV a lot more
Matt Cremona used a camera that pivots to follow him as he walks and he carries the camera. I don't know who makes it or anything. Just information I saw once is all.
I actually love the poverty. Hopefully you can have multiple views down the road and mix it up throughout the video and stop.
Like another has said. Please don't pull in the ditch area. You are asking for a roll over or just getting stuck and would need to call a tow truck. Cars will move around or wait for you.
2nd comment. Have you thought about getting some stickers printed to put on the cans listing stuff that cannot be put in the can such as batteries, vapes and hazardous materials?.
In my city of Colchester we had a bin lorry have to tip out in the middle of a busy through road on a housing estate after someone put a vape in their trashbag and it got crushed in the truck and set the waste on fire.
Not gunna lie, I enjoyed the POV
I don't know if you had this question yet what are you going to do if somebody throw something big out do you charge them extra
too bad that recycling is not an option, there is a lot of recyclable material in your load, btw on a typical day, what is the weight your dumping at the landfill
4 Minute Gang!! Please put the packer down and start tipping the can it makes things faster you can pack later. I agree trucks break and you just have to fix em that's garbage for ya! Great video enjoy it and I personally like the gopro look.! Here in Australia if there is a fire, 1. OPEN THE TRUCK 2. DUMP EVERYTHING 3. MOVE THE DAMN TRUCK (A decent distance away to prevent any damage or danger) REMEMBER The road doesn't matter what matters is you and then maybe your truck.
@@aussiegarbo752 those are great tips for a fire. But when you dump all the garbage if the fire is still containable then you want to grab an extinguisher and try to put that fire out, to prevent it from spreading even more.
@@FireExtinguisherEnthusiast Yeah fair in Australia we dump it and by then its probably too late the batteries have already urnt too much garbage by then.
I prefer pov videos
Would you ever get a bigger truck like Mack Mcneilus?
Try a chest mount go pro mount
I wish you nothing but success you are trying. You have every right to complain. When you spend the kind of money you spent on that truck they should have made it close to being right. Ignore the negative Nancy's hiding in their mom's basement wearing their sister's panties behind the keyboard
Will you ever be interested in bulky trash pickup
Point of view videos that use a chest mount Cameras are a lot less jerky helmet cam videos usually make me sick😂
Little buddy!
12:15 You can cut the cuffs off cheap work gloves, you lose a lot of dexterity with those thick waterproof gloves and I only use them in the rain when the wet gloves stick to your hands. ✌️
21:10 will the insurance company your with cover this? or no (if it does happen)
Do you have ever grease your grease fittings?
love the vids man keep them cominnnnnnn
Prefer the pov cam
it always kills me how you pronounce it vee-hick-le whereas I would say vee-ickle
1 min gang! Can’t wait to watch!
You dump it immediately. Boss
pov camera is way better
People will always be miserable ...thats why they prescribed meds for depression!
Hi
What a lame video
