Autocar ACX McNeilus Carry Can on Rainy Trash - Waste Management of Seattle

While on my lunch break, I wanted to see if I could find a truck on the Monday route across the street. Sure enough, I ended up finding Fernando, a driver who I've filmed twice before this in Seattle (both other times on compost) subbing on a trash route! With the thumbs up to follow along once again, I was able to grab this footage. Despite these trucks making up the bulk of WM's fleet here, I think they're pretty fun to watch - especially as someone who is used to side loader collection and not front load. Of course that's changing since I've recently moved to Seattle haha. Plus, I've wanted to get a full video of one of these on trash for a while, so I was pleased with how this turned out. A few cool carts can be spotted throughout as well, including the WMX Cascade in the intro shot and some newer manual bins. With that, thanks to the friendly driver for allowing me to film, and enjoy some spring time semi-manual action!

Thanks!

Interesting how little garbage they produce, also the truck was cool to see. Awesome video as always!

[@RecologySpencer]

Thank you! Yup, Seattle is pretty strict on recycling and composting - not to say recycling isn’t often contaminated though.

[@ARGarbageTrucks186]

@@RecologySpencer No problem! Cool.

Don't think i'll ever get tired of wm's manual carry cans (since wm here ditched them all) definitely glad seattle is not in CA, because they would've probably replaced all the old rabanco and AW carts

[@RecologySpencer]

Yessir, entertaining trucks. I agree, although all the older carts aren’t in my area I’m glad they’re still around

Love the video bro I have a question when are u going to film a Republic services video at Kent Washington?

[@RecologySpencer]

If I’m ever there on trash day, I’ll try to film a truck - that’s not on my list of places to film though
