ESD Community Cleanup Event

The ominous sound of pack-mors packing at the same exact time, what a sight! Nice job on this one!

[@georgewuzheer]

It's cool to see these lighter duty bodies swallow all that bulk without too much trouble. Consider my fancy thoroughly tickled.

[@GarbageTrucksAZ]

Love these bulk videos. So much fun to watch, just nonstop packing and you did an incredible job capturing that. Really cool atmosphere too, just trucks lined up in a lot packing away. Definitely would be cool to be able to see some of these trucks unload, especially the scrap metal one. Just a giant, tangled, heap of metal pops out haha. Really loved that older Pak-Mor too. Really enjoyed this post, hope to see a part two haha

[@Mydisposal]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@poohmaster54]

I've probably watched this video well over 5 times since you've published this! My favorite truck was around the 13:40 mark....Savannah, GA once had CCC Leaches (1998-1999 and year 2000 New Way King Cobras models I think) and they sounded exactly like that! Best sounding truck out of them all in my opinion!

[@socalgarbagetrucks2585]

Awesome! probably some of my favorite RL footage on KZbin!

[@RODALCO2007]

Great video, awesome compacting and crushing action.

[@trashmonster26]

Why do most of these trucks not have tippers? Are they reserved for only events like this where a tipper isn't necessary?

[@Trashman242]

+trashmonster26 correct. this whole crew and group of trucks does the bi-annual cleanup events and regular curbside ones in different neighborhoods around the city. Alley cleanups too, I believe.

[@AussieGarbo]

Flawless choice for a first clip, showing them all lined up and engines revving, but I thought there would've been a heap more cars and residents present. Clearly noise isn't an issue in the area with the adjacent highway traffic :D Love all the crushing and destruction of furniture! The Pak-Mors have their own touch with clean-up due to the slower slide gradually biting down into the doomed items. I love the long boards and stuff like at 3:12 which quickly flick upwards as soon as the blade crunches into them... a top way to get knocked out if you're an inexperienced worker hehe Good to see the scrap metal truck getting loaded with all the good stuff..... hopefully the yard waste doesn't follow the general into the local landfill, like you've told me is the case in Escondido lol Awesome to see these RLs doing more than the usual residential work. How many of these Pak-Mors does SD run roughly? Must be a close ratio of RL to SL in the city eh?

[@Trashman242]

+MitchellM15 "Good quality" organics generated in SD go to be made into actual compost. The only green waste ESD would send to the dump is poorer quality stuff like palm fronds and other fibrous plant matter that takes forever to break down. Really not too many people brought green waste at all though, since most can just set it out at the curb. Btw lower turnout at this even than the Fall one usually gets, according to the workers we spoke with. I guess they've had cleanup events before with a line of cars going back a mile lol I'd say ~20 Pak-Mors on normal routes each day, roughly. Not even close, without consulting pics of the yard I can say there are probably twice as many ASLs as RLs... seems like few residences in SD city actually make yard waste (a small chunk probably chuck it in with the trash since the default size black cart is pretty large). The ones that do often just have one or two cans set out, and on top of that the two-man crews just haul ass. On top of THAT there are a good number of automated greens routes as well

[@supergarbo636]

nice work bro.

[@arkansastrash320]

This was a good video man thanks !!

[@Trashman242]

+N.E.Arkansas Trash Trucks&Lottery thanks for the comment!

[@WMmaster626]

Wow that's very cool! Way more convenient than making a trip out to the landfill. I've never seen an RL pack metal items before, so this was very cool. Definitely showed the strength of an RL. 3:15 was awesome with the doors flying up lol The old Pak-Mor sounded real good! Really liked 7:44 where you could see the blade crush the cabinet up close. On a little side note, is Miramar Landfill owned by the City of San Diego too? Awesome video, never really been into RLs too much compared to ASL and FL, but this video definitely kept me entertained the whole time!

[@Trashman242]

Glad to hear you enjoyed this. And yes, the City's Environmental Services Department owns and operates Miramar Landfill

[@lidsman2221]

Really cool video and such a great idea by the city. Do you have more video from this? Thanks!

[@Trashman242]

I have another video, longer than this actually.

[@lidsman2221]

Thanks. Will you be posting it soon?

[@legodude24652]

Awesome video! Really can't wait for part two. What Christian said, about the scrap metal unload lol... that's gotta be fun to watch. How'd you end up filming this, with 7 trucks lol? Just hop back and forth from each one? Just curious; great job

[@Trashman242]

you've got it, just look for the more interesting load and hop back and forth. thanks for commenting! happy to hear it was enjoyed

[@denzel387]

it must be lunch time for the had waste truck lol hehe

[@LucasTheSanDiegoRefuseFilmer]

What is that place in the thumbnail

[@cicco2156]

gute job thanks👍😄

[@irishhillbilly3301]

was curious how do the guys know when their truck is full is there a gauge or something that tells them

[@Trashman242]

there's a moving wall called an "ejector blade" that's the same height as the truck body, mounted inside. It's hydraulically powered and will slowly slide forward as the more trash is packed in. So when that ejector blade is all the way forward (right behind the cab), you can tell it's full.

[@irishhillbilly3301]

***** thank you for they info scott

[@TheCoastermanMike]

***** The packer will really start to labor as well,those last few shots that truck definitely looked to be packed out as it was really packing slowly. Man they really gotta watch out for flying debris as those plastic chair legs really went FLYING outa the hopper like boomerangs once the blade hit it.

[@Tom-inthetrash]

Hopefully you can get longer video next time.

[@trashmonster26]

They brought out two older ones this time, both for scrap metal. It was kind of sad because they were beating on the trucks so hard.

[@staintedcards]

sucks too see those old metal lawn chairs and other metal going too the landfill never seen that much old matress and sofas and chairs

[@Trashman242]

Any truck packing what looked like scrap metal was designated for just that, and the material goes to a recycling facility....not the landfill.
