Waste Management Peterbilt 320 McNeilus ZR ASL 103916

Here is Alejandro in one of LA Hauling's ZR ASLs on a heavy post-Thanksgiving trash route in Carson. Despite what people say about the ZR, I find them to be extremely entertaining trucks (with the right driver, of course) and I think they work pretty well. These trucks are some of the nicest looking rigs in my opinion. The "Think Green, Think Clean" logo looks great with the yellow arm. There are about 15-20 of these in the yard.
Alejandro has been working in the waste industry for over 26 years - started at BFI (Gardena Hauling) back in the day and then came to WM. He worked the Rancho Palos Verdes contract back when WM still had it - thought that was pretty cool.
Because of all the trash generated in this area (as you can see, most carts were overfilled and many had at least two carts), Alejandro had another driver helping out on route. It turned out to be 103727 - the 1000th natural gas truck WM has! I didn't film it, unfortunately, so hopefully I'll see it again.
Once again, a huge thank you goes to Alejandro for letting me film and for the water he gave me! Had an awesome time following, talking, and filming him and his truck.
If you do like these trucks, be sure to check out South Bay Refuse's channel for plenty more of these Carson drivers and their ZRs, as well as WasteManTony's channel for a couple Manhattan Beach drivers and their ZRs.
Please comment! Hope you all enjoy! Pictures will be up on Flickr.

This is my dream job, I drive a concrete mixer truck but I am doing it to get cdl experience so I can get hired by waste management. They require one year cdl experience and I only have three months

[@scottsweeney5005]

Waste mangemint does a amazing job

[@misaelrojas8055]

Ya you are right

[@DanielWDonuts]

I really enjoyed this video! Especially since it's of a ZR! And that back up alarm is classic sounding, I miss that on old WM autoreaches that I use to have. Amazing video!

[@WMmaster626]

Thanks! Carson has some great trucks and drivers. I miss those old Autoreaches too...

[@Marvo817]

I really like this ZR, especially since it flips lids.

[@WMmaster626]

Yeah one of my favorites as well. And they have even more violent ones too

[@southernNMRail-Refuse18]

in the city of Las cruses all of the residential garbage truck flip lids

[@GFLProductionsGuy27]

this truck is very good

[@TheDFWTrashman]

Great job! I really think it is cool when a driver talks about the history of his career in this industry, I always find that fun to hear. The thing I really love about these trucks is the way that they sound during the arm cycles, I've come to like CNG trucks just because of that lol!

[@WMmaster626]

Thanks bro! I love hearing these drivers talk about their career too! Haha I think these CNG trucks are pretty cool too, they look fantastic most of the time with "Think Green, Think Clean" on them!

[@TheNVTrashMan]

Wow awesome truck. So much fun to watch it collect packed carts! Seems that WM has a lot of nice drivers in California. Would love to film WM the next time I'm in Cali. In my opinion, these ZRs look the best on Petes. Definitely agree that ZRs are some of the most entertaining trucks out there, either fast or slow. I know a lot of people complain that they have a lot of electrical issues, but I still love them. I also think that it is really cool for McNeilus to adopt this type of style of truck, the original being the Penpac. Really want to film a ZR now, just not sure when I'll have the opportunity to lol. A favorite for sure!

[@samtovar2447]

i hate wm

[@WMmaster626]

Thanks!! WM has some great drivers out here for sure. Let me know if you ever want to film a WM truck, and I'll hook you up with some routes. I agree, these older 320s make the ZR look awesome. Hope you'll be able to find the Vegas ZR! Glad you enjoyed!

[@WMmaster626]

Sam Tovar You don't like 'em, don't watch 'em. As simple as that. I didn't make you watch this, so don't go around leaving stupid comments on my videos.

[@WasteMan226]

Sam Tovar you are such a jerk man if you hate them don't watch them idiot are you in preschool lol

[@TheNVTrashMan]

***** That would be awesome. Thanks! I'll keep that in mind.

[@GarbageTruckVideography]

I love mcneilus zrs too!

[@WMmaster626]

They are really cool trucks!

[@jessef2te254]

That claw can handle the cans.

[@northwestrefuse2151]

I really like these on peterbilts! My only problem with ZRs is I feel like they could be a lot faster. I'm really hoping for some of these for the next round of ASLs up here.

[@WMmaster626]

That certainly would be nice compared to those conventional cabs! These are awesome trucks!

[@wmautoreach123]

Awesome video! I do like the ZR but it has to have some goof in it, I really can't stand a slow ZR but like you said with the right driver, it's an entertaining truck. I do miss filming Advanced Disposal's ZR. Well none the less, the driver did amazing work and as always... Amazing video!

[@WMmaster626]

Thank you! This driver's a pro with this truck. Made it fun to film. Glad you enjoyed!

[@LAAmrepsMaster]

Awesome! Glad you finally got to upload it, thought it wasn't going to be till' January. Wow his route is literally right across the street from Carson High. All those times I've been around there I never saw him.. only Magana. I plan on going there next Friday since I get out of school at 10am cos of finals. Might be a problem if the HS gets out while I'm over there. Plan on getting him and Magana since those are the remaining ZRs I haven't filmed. He seems like an awesome guy. The load is usually heavy in Carson, but that day it was definitely heavier. Hopefully I'll get a good video without biking so much. What time was this filmed again? How long did it take u to find him? Haha the AFE route used to be at 2:45 and the Python route at 10:46. Nontheless, awesome stuff!

[@WMmaster626]

Thanks! Yeah I wanted to post more to the San Gabriel Hauling series before the next yard tour. Definitely should check out this route, really big stops around here. Lots of multi-family homes. Magana works really close, right across I believe 226. Alejandro was real cool. This was filmed from 12-2 pm, and I found him after biking about 10 minutes from that Carson car show, so real fast. I believe he works the same route as Jesus. Haha I noticed that too! There was this one street that I biked past and I noticed that it was the same street I found this other Python on.

[@Curottocanman]

I like this video it was really cool

[@WMmaster626]

+Trent Kovacs Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!

[@progoesout1380]

Hello. If you know it, can you send me his social links? Thank you.

[@scottsweeney5005]

My cousin Chris has a s 10

[@GarbageSean]

Great vid Aaron! This truck has a nice whine to it! What year is this rig? I'm just curious, why does the ZR arm make so much noise when collecting? By the way, check out my most recent video! You'll going to love the sound of the truck! Remember to post a comment too!

[@WMmaster626]

GarbageSean Thanks! 2012 rig. No idea, must be something to do with the shape and material of the arm

[@GarbageSean]
