...with tons of packer action!
Well, I can't believe it, but today marks 10 years to the day since I first joined YouTube, originally known as "TrashMonkey22"! From the time of my earliest memories up to just over a year I joined YouTube, Waste Management serviced my neighborhood with E-Z Pack HCSL and occasionally HCSLA manual side loaders, so I figured what better way to celebrate this major milestone than with a throwback to where it all began for me!
Onto the specifics of this video! Here is Gruetter Sanitary Service's compost truck - a Crane Carrier LET2 with the mighty E-Z Pack HCSLA manual side load body! As many of you will likely recall, I shot some video of this truck about four years ago, but unfortunately I was battling a gnarly case of food poisoning at the time and ended up with a short little video that left a lot to be desired. So on a recent trip to Portland with West Coast Refuse Trucks, I decided to check out this classic machine once again! This time armed with better cameras (and a much happier stomach) I finally came away with a video that I feel really good about! I really tried to put a lot of effort into capturing every angle of this old beast this time, including numerous up-close packer shots and I definitely feel like I finally gave this truck the justice it deserves and I hope you all agree!
So without further ado, here's a huge thanks to all of the drivers and crews I've filmed over the last 10 years, to all of the fellow garbage maniacs I've met along the way, and especially to all of you viewers that I've been able to share this fascinating, albeit odd, hobby with! Here's to 10 more years and countless more adventures to come!
As always, a huge thank you goes out to this outstanding crew!
