1986 Hesston Corp. "Pak-Rat" Mini Side Load Garbage Truck

- Recently, I had the opportunity to tag along for a day with this rare classic: the Hesston Corp. "Pak-Rat" mini side loader! This rare and relatively unknown body is seen here mounted to a 1986 Dodge RAM, and runs a quiet countryside route in rural Lane County, OR. As you can see, this unit has been outfitted with a custom-built cart tipper, which is capable of handling a wide variety of trash carts from 32- to 96-gallons. The full-height curved packer blade is forced into the body by a pair of single-stage hydraulic cylinders, generating enough force to pack nearly two tons of garbage into this little body! When the truck is full, the blade extends all the way to the rear of the body to eject the load. All-in-all, this looks to be a very stoutly built body. Aside from some rust and minor wear and tear, she's still kicking hard and running strong, especially for being nearly 30 years old!
I would like to extend my gratitude to the kind gentlemen at Sunrise Sanitation Service for letting me tag along for a day! I am truly honored to be able to share such a rare truck with all of you! I hope you enjoy the video!

Now this is what I love! People taking care of and still using classic equipment like this!
yep better than modern electronic crap
@@Steve1766No, no it’s not.
@@piedmontrailfan81 yes it is
Sweet, now thats a great garbage truck, real trash, flies, maggots, pesky dog & some cool operators. Have agreat day, & thanks for showing us how kick some garbage ass!
Great old packer!! The fact that its also on Dodge frame makes it even rarer. It looks like its been taken very good care of for sure. Trucks now a days with all the their fancy mechanisms are good only for a few years. These old beasts were built for a lifetime of abuse. Real epic catch brother.

Kjj no
I would say the hydraulic pump is about wore out.
Just going from what I know.
But thank you for posting this.
Have me gobs of ideas.
I have a trash service and this definitely helped
awesome clip! cool truck and just two absolutely philthy garbage men!
Man I could watch that little truck all day long.Dodge trucks are my favorite and the body and packer are so fun to watch must be some cool guys to let you tag along.GREAT video Thanks
Thanks for showing. Reminds me of that small rubbish truck in Winchendon, MA that collected trash at the former Food Ranch store (now long gone due to fire). Seems they were collecting corrugated as well, tough time putting it all in, too!
BIG thumbs up for this video. This truck has stood the test of time for sure, what excellent capture. I cant get enough of these small old side loaders in action and what a feisty tote dumper. Great crew for helping you capture this before they are all gone and nobody would remember the way things were once done. I hope you can get more in the future.
Nice pfp
I like how sunrise sanitary service just drives up to your home to empty the garbage cans
wearing a dog collar :P
@@LeandroMuntendam ?
This is so cool. I hope it's still in use today
I used to drive a truck similar to this. It was a New Way side loader. It always packed better facing up hill. It had hooks in ceiling to hold trash back.
Not much power on that packer but it is nice to see an old truck like this one still at it. Great job Thrash!
Possibly, it is getting too full of trash to be able to pack anymore.
Excellent video! Love this truck, nice to see it in action.
These old Rams were supposedly the least durable chassis of this class, not many have stuck around so seeing one doing grueling trash duty is especially impressive. Great job on all the different camera angles, especially the close ups of the packer arrangement. A clever way to use those smaller cylinders. Very much looking forward to seeing the rest of the Sunrise Sanitation fleet.

right man they where garbage from the factory with that nice garbage paint that would peel a year later. Maybe because this one is not crap blue. You know that blue, not really interesting to look at, not really navy not really sky blue, like blue with gray, crap blue. And rusted out rocker panels. I feel bad for those guys, looks like a craptastic truck. I like the idea. But its sooooo poorly executed, first off this is a tiny body so why they would make it horizontal is beyond me. It should be tipped down so the stuff actually fills it full not just 50%

Great video! Wow this little thing can pack 2 tons that's awesome!
Great video! As you guys know, these small side loaders are my favorite type of refuse body. Thanks for videoing and posting. Keep up the great work!
+jkh99 No problem! I'm glad you enjoyed! I had a lot of fun filming this one, and I gotta say, I'm really pleased with how the different camera angles turned out! This truck was a blast to watch!
This is great! Hope his business keeps growing. You're lucky you have time to travel and film.
this truck is a real thing of beauty!
This truck makes me happy for the junk I drive.
Wow beautiful truck I love it
This is great love the concept for this old design
It's TOO BEAUTIFUL, i Can't Look Directly at it! Lol
Wow, I'd have thought SSS would've bought a load of shiny new Rehrig carts to give out. :-P
Awesome little truck! I hope we'll be seeing more from this company. Fingers crossed that their management doesn't get upset by their routes being filmed ;-)
Nice to you and Jared!

Quite the rig!
This truck is awesome
Cool older truck could use a paint job but at least its still working the streets!
1986 Dodge RAM 350 "Pak-Rat" Mini Side Loader Garbage Truck
nice old truck
Can someone please explain: the ram part looks like it is not really going back far enough to compress anything. How can that compact the garbage?
interesting mini truck
This Garbage Truck is very cool but this young man constantly packs it non stop over and over again
wow pickup truck chassis bin lorry wow badass
what do they do for recycling? and what is their color code?
is he wearing a choker?
Even smaller garbage trucks are even harder to find like the Dodge Ram either Gas powered or Diesel powered
If love to buy one of these I started a trash business in my local area and I'm using a pickup truck
i cant believe there still using that.

willipete07 stick

@@Steve1766 that’s the way to do it
@@willipete07 yes

Are you planning on getting more footage of Jareds company?
+Simco Barker TrashTrucks&Vlogz I've got some more coming up soon, keep an eye out!

Hell. Used to drive one of these shitboxes. Broke down all the time.
Absolute rubbish... Literally.
a modern econic will break down even more and need service to reset sensors SCR NOX DPF Systems ADblue during malfunction you are limited in 20 km/h and in 1 km it will shut down this old truck is more reliable
i think they forgot to clean behind the plate..
Pause @ 2:00. Now look to the right of his right arm. Is that supposed to be hand sanitizer ? On a garbage truck?!
cool garbage turck
Car like as Fallout :)
My old worker used to use his bare hands to pick shit up... it was pretty disgusting lol
this one looks like a drid up bunna and I have it
Was this actually used in real life?
FlightEng Hughes yes
hahaha pretty cool ol truck.
Interesting little garbage truck, but not having anything to hold back compressed trash seems to render it pretty useless. Also, I can't believe these guys do not wear gloves, and worse yet, reach into the hopper to adjust trash.....with bare hands!
That looks like a really poorly made I feel bad for those guys, looks like a craptastic truck. I like the idea. But its sooooo poorly executed, first off this is a tiny body so why they would make it horizontal is beyond me. It should be tipped down so the stuff actually fills it full not just 50% seems like a lot of wasted space. That thing that lifts the can looks like its hand breaker.
It’s just old and not well maintained. They stopped making them for a long time, but the newer versions they have are essentially the same design. Just a lot more power and computers.
do they recycle?
4:15 above the face does that say uwu (the graffiti)
what a sketchy crew when they are not picking up garbage they are crackin cribs!
I think they are a big laugh to me my I run a garbage service my trucks would make 2 or 3 of them old things we have 4 trucks now I would love to sale this guy 1 so he could make reall money
The video seems excellent, but by God we are in the twenty-first century, the company should think about the modernity of the service system, we can see the effort on human made by the staff to empty the garbage containers the same way the security equipment, ,
Bye.
You get what you can afford.
We all don't have money to start off with.
You work save buy another rig.
Upgrade along the way.
I'm still using a truck and trailer.
This company is self employed running a very rare piece of equipment. It is also a rural service line that cannot be attained by city trucks. Think next time before you comment and stop with the "america is a shithole" narrative preached by facebook.
music is too loud.
Dam joke 😵💫
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that they are not wearing gloves?
I won't one

Holy shit what a crap this whole truck is. And where are the nice workers glowes?
It's weak packing hold only like 2 tons old engineering not good
Old outdated piece of junk with no capacity.
more reliable than 3rd gen econics with modern faun variopress
outdated ? do you like Planned obsolescence ?
