Stop J trucks and things. You have never experienced these drivers. I’m not saying I have ethier. And it depends on how the driver is. Not the company. I have come across some really rude drivers at republic and some nice ones. So I’m not saying there all good or all bad. It all depends on one driver not the whole company.
Teachers used to threaten us with becoming “garbage men” if we didn’t pay attention in school. These guys make bank, I should’ve had more fun in school.
Shit i wish i made bank im a garbage man and im pretty much making minimum wage and we don't even get overtime im honest about to find another place to work

Damn. I just recently started as a recycling truck driver in Canada small city of 140,000 and we still do it old school. Hop out and separate the glass, dump the rest. If there is trash or mouldy shit put it back in and flip the bin. Make them clean their lawn and they won’t do it the again. If they don’t get the point just note it and a super visor truck can knock on their door.
We have both left and right hand drive trucks. Some guys like the right hand drive trucks as the carts are just outside of the cab. I don't like the right hand drive, they seam backwards to me.
You're right if a vehicle was actually left unattended while fueling, it would result in disciplinary action. However this was just a visual joke. Nothing more. We'd never leave an fueling vehicle unattended like this. We do appreciate your concern. Hopefully this puts your concerns to rest.

Thank you guys for putting up this video. I love it and I also learned a lot from your training. You guys are awesome! please put up more videos like this. Thanks!
pre trip is before the sun comes up, so you need a flash light or wear a head lamp, first check engine oil before starting the engine, while building the air supply check tire air pressure with a air gauge for truck tires and then four-way lights on the walk-around, then do the air brake check; cut-in cut-out, low warning, dynamic and static loss rates and etcetera, pull out for a tug test do not exceed 900 rpms then function test the hydraulics, no tail-gate camera in the monitor will down the vehicle, check reverse and for auto switching in the monitor, you will be leaving the yard with as many a 30 trucks do not leave until signaled by the rout manager .. before leaving the tipping floor at the landfill or material recovery facility check for loose material on the back of the truck .. do not park the truck empty of fuel, while fueling do not leave the pump unattended only after you have clocked out can you play grab-ass with the trainee and that is to be done under advisement; 'happy trash day'
Good question @John Connor. Our first level driver positions (Maintenance Tech Sr) start at $40,650 per year. We also have Maintenance Specialists who operate the more complicated machinery. They start at $43,302. The average driver in our Solid Waste department right now makes $43,813.30 as a Tech Sr and $49,143.58 as a Specialist. They also get overtime. You can find out more about our City Jobs at www.durhamnc.gov/3774.

So, what did you do with the overfull bin? I saw that you picked up some cardboards and put aside the non-recyclable stuff! Did you pick up the bin again after you put the stuff back?
Tip. You do not gas up a garbage truck you fuel it up. Garbage trucks do not take gasoline they use deisel fuel. Only reason I bring that up is my trucking school instructor would go off on anyone that would say gas. Lol
wait... they don't recycle carpet? we do that all the time as a contractor and we got paid by the pound for carpet and padding. Made for a nice way to have a savings account to pull at the end of each year..
What each municipality recycles depends on the details they work out in the individual recycling contract. Unfortunately, Durham doesn't recycle carpet.
Sweden: We have sorting places spread around all kind of places often nearby shops and other natural places you pass by. There you sort out cardboard, paper, colored glass, non colored glass, plastic, batteries and metal (like cans). Then we have larger recycling places where you sort out electronics, larger batteries, light bulbs, washing machines, wood, larger plastic stuff, metal and more. Drinking cans, like soda and water bottles, are in a recycling circuit where you pay a fee when you buy the drink, and then you return it in special machines in the shops where you get the money back. And at home we have compostable in one bin and the rest in one, and if you do your duty and recycle at all the other places, the bin has almost no trash at all in it (and then you also have a lower fee thanks to that). And since several years, the entire Sweden has begun going to four compartments bins. You will have two at every home, and then you can sort out 10(!) different fractions at your doorstep. Plastic, cardboard, paper, metal, and so on. The two 'extra' is a separate smaller box where you put lights and batteries and hang this on the main bin when you want it emptied. Then each garbage truck have four compartments (or five, for those smaller batteries and lights but that is just a separate little bucket type thingie) and the bins are emptied automatically into all those four compartments. Like this: ruclips.net/video/q0WeV_9pS7I/видео.html
i work for the city here where i live and the trash trucks we got here are old and nasty constantly breaking and the drivers dont care one bit we work hours and hours to get these things running and they come back filthy and falling apart. From this video those trucks look new and nice but thats just one truck from what i see.

Last time I knew the only way to properly check your tires was with a tire gauge. He didn't show her a air brake air brake check the safest way to back is at idle not pressing the accelerator.

Never leave your truck unattended during fueling. 😉

Do you have any problems with roaches in the cab?
@@whiskeylies4221 please answer my questions
@@TheRedPanda. I’m not sure what it is.
What’s strange is that at the pre trip the gasoline level was full, but then before they got to work they still filled it up
The joysticks used to operate American Garbo trucks are controlled the same as us Australian trucks
I didn't know Mike Tyson had a side job
I didn't know they were hauling cake today
So that’s how you move one of those arms, it’s the same control as a tele-handler. I learned something there.
I Dont Know why People put Trash and Juice in there Recycle Carts like come on do Better People of Durham
Great show
Chris seems pretty cool 😎
only thing they messed up on was NEVER leave your truck/car while filling up Gas as it could fall out and u gonna lose a lot of Gas and $$$ lol
