@KFCOrBust Yea, we saw the guy do that little trick where he drug the cart away from a car before we were filming so we tried to find a spot where he might do it again since it was pretty neat. Im not sure what was up with the truck that has cones on the grippers but i guess it helps keep the grippers from punching through all the broken carts in the alleyways since nobody here ever gets broken carts replaced.....
@Trashman242 lol the reason I filmed up close at 2:15 is that it wasnt the first time he had done that so I wanted to get it on film. Very clever way to get it where you need it. The cones were there (Im guessing) because in china town NOBODY calls in for new carts when there in alleyways and tons of them have crack arouns the gripper areas and the cones help make a larger griping surface so it doesnt punch through the broken carts as easy.
@Binboy97 not sure. There traffic cones with the bottoms cut off. I think it helps keep the grippers from punching holes through the broken carts in the alleyways since nobody ever replaces broken carts here

Really enjoyed watching this video, nice collection of trucks and shots... I had to watch 2:15 a second time; that was neat! Best engine sound for me would've been following 6:43, the meanest growl =] Also what was with the red grabbers on that single axle? The line at 3:45 tells you how to guarantee a closed lid; swing 'em round the other way haha Also with Chinatown, are there this many bins because of apartments / townhouses? Mad footage!!! Liked + Faved! Truck at the end was bright too!
@RainbowDisposal yea for some reason the audio got fucked up at that part of the video, not sure why though. It starts right after the image flickers. I dont know why it did that either. It was fine when I edited it.
I love desiel amreps. nice work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i passed by Hollywood and saw #639. i went to a huge neighborhood and saw a bunch of nice Los angeles garbage cans.
@MitchellM15 yea, Chinatown is made up of tons of appartments crammed full of people on every street, with an almost 100% asian population (hence the name Chinatown) The reason most people dont recycle is that they have no room for recycling carts! Almost evey complex has about 15-20 carts and about half or more of them are just sitting stacked up out of the way to save space. I love the sound of that greenwaste truck but almost nobody here puts greenwaste carts out for collection sadly...
@Trashman242 haha I knew you would like the way that truck purrs :D Wait until you hear it going up the hills in chinatown, thats when we first saw it. Driving shots of that truck are just as fun if not better than operating shots!
@731npc haha I was in Burbank today actually LOL didnt find route day though, so I ended up filming in the La Crecenta-Montrose area. Dont worry though, Ill make it there some day! Its on my To-Film Summer list If you want to PM me a route day and area I can try to make it out there in the next 2 weeks.
@3amrepmike3 Yeh we have a Chinatown in Sydney too, but jack shit residential area, it's all commercial and restaurants. Pretty stupid about the recycling carts being stacked, like wtf, why even have them there?!
@ctiscan haha. apparently your to ignorant to see the quotation marks which tell that I'm using your terms, not my own. keep on replying, this is very, very entertaining for me!

Very nice job! You have a great amount of all these trucks! This driver sure has some skill when working his truck!

Awesome, I like how they were resourceful and used traffic cones to help keep the carts alive longer.
@CurottoCanMaster82 thanks

Nice job. Is the audio out of sync in that backwards line-up or are my broken earphones at it again? lol
