Waste Management: Detroit West

A lot has changed at this yard since my last compilation a year ago.
Since then, the majority of the older trucks have been either scrapped or sent off to Whitmore Lake. Many newer Mack MRUs have been brought in from other yards, along with a handful of CNG Autocar FLs.
This also marks an unfortunate point in the yard, as Rizzo begins servicing Dearborn Heights on November 1st.
However, to compensate for the loss, Waste Management has closed the Whitmore Lake yard and has begun the process of moving all the trucks over. This will prevent any lay-offs from Dearborn Heights.
In this compilation, you'll get to see a bit of the Residential Launch, along with a brief overview of most of the trucks in the fleet.
I'd like to extend my thanks to all the managers: Kevin, Jason, Steve, and Keith, for allowing me to film these videos as well as just being great guys. They have an excellent operation, and have shaped this yard to be the best in the region and one of the best in the nation.
Furthermore, I can't go without giving credit to the drivers/loaders. Some of the coolest guys there are, and I hope to work alongside them after a few years.
Without further ado, please enjoy everything that I've put together!

Yall do a great job! Yall are better than Costal Waste and Recycling Inc.

[@turbocat1984]

I can't believe in this day and age there are still trucks where the driver has to get out. I haven't seen a garbo get out of a truck in 25 years!

[@garbageproductions1]

It's different over here in the States, especially in the areas where the majority of material is manually collected.

[@brandonpryormusic]

turbocat1984 remember more moving parts are nothing but more problems. If a self loading truck has a malfunction, it’s useless. Also depending on the route, sometimes the cans or dumpsters have to be moved out to the truck by the driver.

This is great to see. I have one more class, and I'll be doing the same thing. I'm nervous, and excited at the same time. The scary stuff that happens with them is a bit alarming. If some don't know what I'm talking about, look up the bad stuff that could possibly happen. You almost second guess your self, wondering if your choosing the right career, or not.

[@garbageproductions1]

Welcome to the club. Best wishes to you, just know that you can never be too safe and always look twice. We have all seen the worst that can happen, but we have also seen many great things happen in the industry.

This job will keep you in shape for sure! I think i would wear a painters mask to not inhale all that toxic all day. WM should require them to wear mask, gloves, boots and perhaps even back-supports.

[@real_doombastic]

A mask sucks, if you have to wear it 10 hours a day. Usually there is no toxic air to breath (except the exhaust gases of the truck), but the dust of the garbage is bad for the lung.

Awesome video!! Great to see more launch footage, some of favorite things to watch. Quite bright out at 6:15 haha Neat to see how they do the Curotto testing! I'm curious how they do that out here, unfortunately, there's only a few yards that have Curottos still. That Carry Can was really neat to see. Loved seeing those Curottos pick up stuff with the arm. The semi-auto at 8:38 was great, and I love the extra tank on that. 15:23 was one of my favorite clips, the truck just looks real nice in that one. Idk why but it looks better than any of the other ACXs that they have in my opinion. At least from that angle lol Was disappointed to hear about Dearborn Heights. I know you're a huge Rizzo fan, but I hope that with the downfall of them and GFL taking over, this yard will be able to get more work. Great compilation!

[@garbageproductions1]

Glad I was able to provide! It was filmed back in July, so it was pretty light. I did that intentionally. I'd have to assume they do something similar. 15:23 is probably the best looking because of the old carry can, brings out the new shinyness! I'm not sure what will happen with Rizzo. All I know is that after the corruption sweep by the FBI, a handful of cities may reconsider Rizzo, and GFL is going to aggressively rebrand the Rizzo fleet. Thank you sir!

Wofür sind die Singelreifen an denn Liftachsen?

[@1GTASANANDREASCJ]

Zur Lastverteilung, sobald der LKW ein bestimmtes Gewicht erreicht hat. Dann leiden die Reifen an der Antriebsachse weniger und auf die Straße wird das gesamte Gewicht gleichmäßiger verteilt. So entstehen keine Rillen im Straßenbelag. Da aber viele Straßen bei denen aus Beton sind, zählt letzteres nicht.

Can't believe how lax they are about double siding! Great sound on the Mack at 10:11! Nice shot at 16:11, knowing WM I figured they would order these set so that you could only dump with the break set. Anything noteworthy coming over from Whitmore Lake?
