San Diego's Brand New Peterbilt Amreps

[@sandiegorefuse1175]

Nice to see a new Brad CNG trucks and Recycling trucks working Collecting nice video bro

[@trashmonster26]

Sandiego Refuse yeah! It’s not so brand new anymore. Thanks

[@swolbrohamlincoln9659]

Sometime next year we should be getting our new rear loaders also. The city takes priority on automated but next year they'll finally show us some love

[@trashmonster26]

Swol BrohamLincoln I'll be there to record some when that happens

[@blazeginsberg7278]

Are these going to be the new engines you guys buy forever?

[@trashmonster26]

Blaze Ginsberg no way. They'll always change it up.

[@stormchaser316]

Nice video! I noticed that the LED shining on the arm turns on and off when the arm is in use and not in use. Thought that was an odd feature. Nice to see CNG in ESD's Fleet.

[@blazeginsberg7278]

Hello Trashmonster26 Which other of these Amreps collect recycling apart from 332 and 340?

[@trashmonster26]

i have no idea

[@TrashBulldogProductions]

These units look a lot like the ones L.A Sanitation has been ordering for the past year with the exception of the rooftop CNG tanks and the tag axle. Nice shot of that hopper action! Will San Diego County keep their older ones as spares or will they be junked?

[@trashmonster26]

+Stuart Alvarez the old petes will be around for a little while. I saw many of them the day I filmed this. They'll be gone soon enough, though. Likely to be sold to another company somewhere else on the west coast, as the trucks are still in pretty good condition when ESD retires them.

[@trashmonster26]

+Stuart Alvarez The old petes will be here for a little while longer. When they leave they will be sold to other west coast companies because they're still in good condition when ESD retires them.

[@TrashBulldogProductions]

trashmonster26 Oh okay. Also I didn't know that they charged for cart replacements.

[@kalebhendershott3116]

great truck thanks

[@blazeginsberg7278]

Wouldn't it be so cool if EDCOs ZRs could sound like these?

[@Kaan-be8nn]

What was the blue truke for?

[@trashmonster26]

+Kaan “Kaan5072” 5072 That's a private company. Residents in this area can choose between paying a small property tax for City-provided garbage or pay Republic Services to pick up for them. Only in the alleys, though. Main streets are all mandatory city pickup. It's quite a silly and bureaucratic system.

[@Kaan-be8nn]

trashmonster26 oh ok.

[@trashmonster26]

+Dunedin Garbage Trucks what about recycling?

[@jordancleaver5479]

awesome video! these trucks are beautiful

[@trashmonster26]

+Dunedin Garbage Trucks They sure are! Too bad they won't be for long.

[@jordancleaver5479]

they'll probably start looking like the dirty diesel amreps one day

[@blazeginsberg7278]

What engine do these Amreps use

[@trashmonster26]

Blaze Ginsberg I have absolutely no idea

[@westernoregongarbagetrucks6141]

Great work I really like these Pete amreps do you think there is a chance of esd buying n3 amreps ??

[@trashmonster26]

+Western Oregon Garbage Trucks I am happy to say that it is extremely unlikely that will ever happen.

[@trashman3062]

they demoed one on 297 and they did not like it so they changed to the Candy Cane arm. the N3 i a bit slow at the top as well.

[@blazeginsberg7278]

Why did they buy these engines? I think the ones that 2013 ACX Have are fine.

[@trashmonster26]

+Blaze Ginsberg I wouldn't know exactly. I do know that most garbage pickup organizations (City departments and private companies) listen to feedback from their employees about what works best on route. I also know that the City is switching from Diesel to Compressed Natural Gas for reasons involving carbon emissions, and that CNG engines always sound higher pitched and more annoying than diesel ones.

[@blazeginsberg7278]

Some of republic services CNG's don;t sound like this

[@Kaan-be8nn]

Nice

[@tommydang6425]

Bro, puts the bin down on the floor and then he doesn’t care and then takeoff

[@blazeginsberg7278]

I think the diesil Pete Amrep ellipticals sound more annoying

[@trashmonster26]

Blaze Ginsberg that's weird

[@blazeginsberg7278]

trashmonster26 Why?

[@trashmonster26]

most of us prefer the sound of a diesel engine

[@blazeginsberg7278]

trashmonster26 Too be fair. I think the scorpions r the most annoying of all of them. I can't stand 323 and 324

[@trashmonster26]

Blaze Ginsberg the scorpions literally sound exactly the same

[@yupengfang9193]

I got one picking up trash but it's 815 331

[@garbagetrucksofsanmarcosca]

Awesome great 👍 video and brand new peterbilt 520 amerps dude on trash and recycling flipping lids man

[@DrBeary]

Sad to see all the routes go automated, soon all the drivers will be fat and out of shape...

[@trashmonster26]

+Dr. Beary As far as trash and recycle go (this is not true of green waste), every City of San Diego route that could be automated, has been automated. The ones that are still done by rear loaders now, will always be done by rear loaders. Also these two drivers were pretty skinny :P

[@TrashBulldogProductions]

It's not a matter of being lazy, it's a matter of safety and exposure to hazards for the operator. It also makes routes quicker and efficient. Also the city can provide bins so the residents don't have to purchase their own.

[@trashmonster26]

Stuart Alvarez You'd think they would replace broken carts for you, but the City of San Diego charges residents 75 dollars for replacement carts and 25 dollars for delivery (the latter can be avoided by picking up the cart in your car at their yard). Every other point is very true though.

[@michaelhorgan9525]

@@trashmonster26 We had to replace ours due to the axle breaking off. It did let us upgrade our 65 gallon recycling bin to a 95 gallon bin.

[@trashmonster26]

Michael Horgan I try to stick with the smaller bins. They’ll break less easily in the future.

[@swolbrohamlincoln9659]

Sometime next year we should be getting our new rear loaders also. The city takes priority on automated but next year they'll finally show us some love

[@trashman3062]

You work for ESD?

[@swolbrohamlincoln9659]

Liam Flynn yes

[@michaelhorgan9525]

City is supposed to get 20 new CNG trucks this Fiscal year.
