Rumpke Older Mack LEU McNeilus Rear Loader on Heavy Trash

I went back to Ohio for a 2nd time during my 2023 summer break. The garbage day for the residential homes in the neighborhood of my parents' condo is Monday, so I expected to film at least 1, maybe both, streams being collected, including the ACX Heil Curotto, which normally does automated trash on the main road while a rear loader does the side streets. However, recycle was done before 7 AM like when I was there in June 2023, and I believe this rear loader did all the residential trash in the neighborhood this time, including the main road, but based on where I found the truck, the driver likely did the entire main road 1st and the side streets 2nd. This is the same truck I filmed collecting trash in my Grandma's area from my 2018 Ohio trip, so it was cool to see it again in a different part of the greater Cincinnati area, and with a different driver. It's hard for me to believe that Rumpke of Cincinnati's CNG Mack LEU McNeilus Rear Loaders are 10+ years old already. Their 1st CNG trucks came around 2010ish, which included many of these trucks and a few Mack MRU McNeilus Atlantic Front Loaders with top-mounted CNG tanks. Truck 83204 seems to be holding up well aside from the rust on the back. Thank you to the driver for letting me follow down 1 of the side streets! I would've gotten more footage, but the side streets are very spaced out, I didn't want to bother the driver too long since I'd already filmed 2 videos of 83204 in 2018, and it started pouring rain lol. Enjoy!

thats gotta be one hard route to run by yourself. im surprised he had none helping. other than that, great video as always!

[@GarbageTruckVideography]

Thanks! Yeah this seemed tough for the driver to do by himself. There's normally supposed to be a helper in this route.

[@ianssirensproductions7418]

@@GarbageTruckVideography i bet it was. how long is the route? the route i run takes about 3-4 hours with me and my garbage guy.

[@GarbageTruckVideography]

This neighborhood likely takes at least 3-4 hours with just one truck and driver.

Howdy. I work on this crew! Our routes are normally structured to take 6-7 hours solo. We also run routes in rural Indiana that have fewer stops, but much more driving. My Thursday is about 170 miles, with my first 6-7 hours being 60 hand stops and 33 containers, followed by another 3-4 hours in a town
