Here's an awesome, one-of-a-kind little truck! The body started out it's life as a 16-yard Heil Rapid Rail, but has since been modified into a mini CP Python! This unique customized body looks extra cool sitting behind this classic Peterbilt 310 cab! I really wish I could have gotten more footage of this truck, but unfortunately this was all I was able to get. I hope you all enjoy!
Peterbilt 320 - Heil DuraPack 7000
Here we have a beautiful Heil DuraPack 7000 automated side load body on an equally gorgeous Peterbilt 320 cab and chassis! This awesome truck is seen here collecting a mix of residential and commercial garbage in a small town in southeastern Washington. The entire town is handled by this one truck, with residential customers each being issued a 96-gallon cart, and commercial customers having the choice between 96-gallon carts or 300-gallon containers. This was fun town to film in, and I'm really pleased with how a lot of these shots turned out! I hope you all enjoy the footage as much as I do!
Big thanks goes out to the driver for letting me snap up some video of this truck!
Autocar ACX - McNeilus ZR
Here we have a brand new McNeilus ZR automated side loader on an Autocar ACX cab and chassis, powered by compressed natural gas (CNG). Amazingly, despite their prominence out here on the west coast, this was one of the very first McNeilus ZR's I've ever seen in person, and the first that I've filmed a full video of. While I wouldn't normally go out of my way for such commonplace truck, I couldn't resist this one, as it was only a few hours into its service life and still looked like it had just rolled right off the assembly line! On top of that, this particular unit also operated much faster and smoother than many of the ZR's that I've watched here on YouTube, even flipping most of the lids on the carts it collected. As an added bonus, I was able to catch this truck collecting several European-style "wheelie bin" carts as well - a rare treat here in the States! I hope you all enjoy the footage of this shiny new truck! It is seen here collecting a residential recycling route.
Huge thanks to the very professional driver for allowing me to capture this footage!
Lodal EVO MAG-20
Here is another fine example of the many different Lodal EVO's that run routes in the Portland Metro! This one is run by Cloudburst Recycling, and is seen here collecting a residential compost route. I was lucky enough to be able to catch this beast eating up a few Christmas trees as well, as you will see here! The Lodal EVO has long been one of my favorite garbage trucks n the road, and this unit is no exception! I hope you all enjoy this footage as much as I do!
Also, huge thanks to the driver, YouTube's very own Georgewuzheer, for allowing me to stalk him for a bit and get some footage of his truck ;)
Peterbilt 310 - Dempster Route King
Here's a truck that I filmed and uploaded a brief video of a couple of years ago. Since I found myself back in it's route area once again, I wanted to get some better video of it, this time making sure to get a couple of packer shots, as well as some better close-up shots of the custom glass box behind the cab. Anyways, so once again, here is a gorgeous, well-preserved Dempster Route King II on a Peterbilt 310 cab and chassis! This old beauty is seen here working its way through a residential recycling route!
I'd like to take a moment to thank this awesome, hard worker for allowing me to shoot some video of this truck, and for putting on a good show!
