I had no idea they’ve only been around since the 50’s. That makes my parents older than the invention of garbage trucks. What did people do before garbage collection?
Live at a trailer home community and we used to have to throw the trash bags at a dumpster by the entrance and ever since they put trash bins it’s made our lives easier, props to them

Loved watching how it's made in high school 7-10 years ago. Didn't know what engineering was until senior year of high school, then through engineering school remembered I liked this show. But now I'm a videographer, making some videos about making things lol
I love @How It's Made and you are a big reason, I became a Mechanical Engineer. I currently work at a USA garbage truck manufacturer. It really is cool being able to designs these behemoths. Great Video!
Mine since… I guess I was born? No probably since kindergarten or 1st grade. My mom saved like 20 episodes on disks for me back in the day. Always so relaxing to just …Pick a random item and see it made
I just watched this sitting on the shop floor where we machine transmission parts for the Mack cabovers shown at the end. Side note: what happened to trash before 1952
I work at Republic Services and the half pack commercial front loaders are just a bad design period, Monday I have to go and install a new floor and wear plates made from AR steel and put supports where the blade first starts compacting the trash because it just puts a big dip in the floor and supports where all the hydralic cylinders are because they just crack the plates and break off eventually..
It's just a base coat to either wrap the truck or to place decals on the truck. No sense in paying extra for another color if you are going to cover over it.
@@norbertdx my trash guys barely lifts a finger to grab the trash cans with a mechanical arm. Not go down the street with two guys throwing heavy bags and trash cans up and down the street
I work on these garbage trucks, as one can imagine it totally stinks, and is very dirty work. That said, being one of these garbage truck drivers is hard work, I would rather repair trucks than to be a full time driver.
Had to work on a garbage truck side loader. It broke down fully loaded. It sat for 2 months before we got the transmission parts. Let me tell you. It was ripe to say the least. I had rat poop on top of the transmission while it unbolted it 🤮
The legendary Trash Truck. in the US there are three manufactures Hail Industries, McNeilus, and Oshkoch. The trucks themselves come from MACK in Allantown Pennsylvania and are delivered to the factory on piggyback. Once the truck arrives everything is added. Three models leave from this plant the LR which uses mechanical arms, the Terrapro which has a side loader or a rear hopper, and the Granite Axleback which has a rear compactor. These trucks are on the street hauling trash hours after they are built.
@@theghtrashman1978 heil trucks are like food you hate but only eat it cause it’s there McNeil on the other hand is food you will eat cause you like it
They do exist and they made a new style of truck i forget the name but all the drivers refuse to drive it because it’s a terrible design so all these brand new trash trucks are just sitting in the yard.
As a employee for the garbage industry i can honestly say i don’t have much respect for people who drive automative trucks. In my eyes the allow Laziness into our hard working industry… people who drive these trucks in residential areas never pick up any debris that falls out of said can or trucks. They use the i didn’t see it excuses go figure but they do via mirrors every professional driver worth there hide ain’t missing a thing through those mirrors. Automative trucks are the worst in our industry as far as residential routes go I completely despise those trucks. -A loader
That last truck most likely a N.Y.C garbage truck we call them E-Z packs they buy the most truck in the country. The recycling truck get filled with one side paper the other side plastic
Never realised how dated and poorly thought out US garbage trucks are. Wonder why they choose such an inefficient design (e.g lopping off the back of a standard truck, and that tiny little storage area).
I used to drive garbage trucks, they took both dumpsters and small trash cans, and they were the most fun big toys I've ever worked with.
They are fun to operate, I love crushing bulk waste with the rear loaders.
Ayee you got that trash truck lego set too?
@@YukariAkiyama If you never had that set, did you really have a childhood?
My grandpa drove for 35 years.
That is some legit rough work man.
Different breed forsure ✊🏾👍🏾
Seems like fun to be able to crush cars that are in your way 👏
Much respect to the garbagemen, without them we wouldn't have such easy lives.
Their clean up men, not garbage men .

Mom: why are u on ur phone the whole day, what did u learn from that?!?!?
Me: *I'm learning how to make a garbage truck*
"humans beings have always generated garbage"

I mean, its not wrong.
Some human beings are garbage, generated by human beings.

It is really fasnating to learn how stuff are made.

I can remember picking a few trucks up from here and delivering them. Fort Payne, Alabama I believe.

I'm here because I've wanted to know how these work since I was 3.... 30 years later.....
Thank you, RUclips and How it's Made!
How long does it take to build one truck?
A childhood classic
0:06-0:08 😂 That sound so out of Contacts
"Human beings have always generated garbage." Whoa, right out of the gate, insulting all of humanity
You learn a lot from the Science Channel
Thank you, garbage haulers! 🙌
Pure white. The best color for something handling trash everyday
It's just a base coat to either wrap the truck or to place decals on the truck. No sense in paying extra for another color if you are going to cover over it.
Exactly it's up to the people purchasing the trucks to color them. Tard.
Who ever buys the truck is obviously going to color it
it should be painted black
Pure white. The best color for selling to companies to cover with their own branding.
I'm surprised Penguinz0 hasn't commented on this video yet.
The great thing about those big trash containers and the automated dumping robot is you can put a body in there and no one will even know it.
Forbidden life hack
what about the recycling line?
@@ashiksaleem360 We have separate recycling (2 different trucks) here so bodies go straight to the landfill and get buried.
Yes, police. This guy right here
We have cameras on our trucks, so we can see.
Until they break down and some poor mechanic has to crawl inside and work on the rancid maggot infested hydraulics.
I like how a lot of us said that we didn't like the show too much as a kid until we're all in our 20s and 30s.
It blows me away when I see actual people throwing trash bags in the back like they are stuck in the past.
Usually in super big cities like NYC because its faster, or small cities due to job creation, to keep their economy going.
ok, where do you put yours?
@@norbertdx my trash guys barely lifts a finger to grab the trash cans with a mechanical arm. Not go down the street with two guys throwing heavy bags and trash cans up and down the street

The newest Mack recycle trucks are quiet and clean, electric too ⚡

Hi Charlie
I work on these everyday crazy to see how it's made though.
and yet the waste management company said the food waste dumpster was too heavy to empty.
I love this show i used to watch it all the time as a kid bring back so much memory And information

Informative. Useful. Calming. Inspiring. Life-changing. Enjoyable. Heart-warming. Other.
Very Amazing Heil Durapack 7000 and Half Pack. Very Great and durable trucks on the road today.
Had to work on a garbage truck side loader. It broke down fully loaded. It sat for 2 months before we got the transmission parts. Let me tell you. It was ripe to say the least. I had rat poop on top of the transmission while it unbolted it 🤮
They save money to not unload those, likely is against city code.
Drove a Ford F-750 with a Heil compactor when I was in High School and college.
so does this mean thousands of garbage truck drivers see combat every day? *i know this isnt what it means, im just messin*
Looks like it was filmed in Ft Payne, AL location.
That was crazy perfect!!!!
The garbage truck that comes to my house has the biggest arm I’ve ever seen on the side
This is one of those things that I didn't know I wanted to know

Can't wait for the Huggbees video
The company name...
I wonder how these garbage trucks feel about being garbage trucks
This is like Lego’s for adults
Wait the garbage truck wasn’t invented until the 1950s? How did they get rid of garbage before that? Horse driven carts?
They are made in Fort Payne AL
They sure are
Why was i never told that garbage trucks are this cool? Ik i have autism but this is really interesting
2:46 Guy welding wearing a t-shirt. This factory doesn't give a d@mn about safety protocols.
I wish they would make quite trucks, that don't wake people up at stupid hours of the morning.
I'm wondering thats Heil still exist, because production looks like from the 80s, and very far away from mass production.
They do exist and they made a new style of truck i forget the name but all the drivers refuse to drive it because it’s a terrible design so all these brand new trash trucks are just sitting in the yard.

Its a multipack and it isn't a NYC
The guy @ 2:01 almost lost his finger in regards to the camera being there distracting him from his work 😮
I wonder if this is at the Ft. Payne, AL plant
Yes it is. I recognised the half pack lie and DPDC at the end.
Yup. I was wondering the same thing
Damn its got 2 hoppers
Dumbest thing ever! One side fills up with heavy trash and the other is lite recycling making for a off balance load!
For recycling 👏
I build these. As if simply "cutting off the frame" didn't require 8 hours of prep or anything...

I kind of want that die-cast truck from the beginning of the segment.
1952? what did we do before that!?
That opening line just summarized TikTok and OnlyFans.
Now I know
The newer side loads are alot quicker
It's filled with the promises of politicians
real funny youtube... here i am with my nose blocked and then at the end i see "how its made tishues'
no hard hats lolol
What is the name of the commentator for How It’s Made???
Trash truck … garbage is food scrap refuse that will decay and smell … there is a difference.
garbage truck lore
i thought it was a Ford Ranger when they said
"How It's Made: a Garbage Truck"
How It's Made is perfect for people on the autism spectrum
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The real question is how were these machine made
Based on the background and where it seems to be, its in my local home town in Alabama.
I drive a rear load 10 years in the business it’s a money maker if you know how to do It
Ok if the first trash truck was 1952,,,then how did people get rid of garbage before that?????
Burn it
So you just skip the prep paint part
Two words.
