    “Just stop, get out, make ‘em move around you.”
    Fellow truck driver and truer words have never been spoken. It sucks but you gotta do it.
    The worst is that one asshole who sees you pulling off to the side with your hazards on and insists on waiting behind you despite waving them on and all the other clear signals of “hey I’m pulling over, go around me!”

      I always tell the new guys, “We’ve got the big truck, we’ve got to back into THAT space, it’s gonna take a little time to do it, but we’ve got a job to do and everyone else is just gonna have to wait, whether they like it or not!”

    Hey bro ! great video, brings back memories. I used to do this some twenty five years ago, and by far the best job in garbage industry. It saves your back from getting wrecked over time by the truck doing most all the work. Nice video, well done.

    Thanks you from France. :) We're only classic rear loading garbage trucks (with estherics curtains to hide blade), and very few asl garbage trucks.

    Always drove me crazy driving these, thats the tilt controls are opposite to that of a forklift or excavtor bucket. Normally, took me half a day or so to get back used to it. Typically, curl in is left, curl out is right.
