Ararat Garbage

Back in 2019, the MelbourneGarbo and I went for a drive out to Western Victoria to check out a few of the councils up that way. When passing through Ararat, I didn't think much of it and didn't have intentions of getting anything on film as it was just another standard Wheelie Waste contract. Just as we were driving out of the main town centre, as I turned my head I did notice a part of the collection area and then, about a minute later, this 2006 Acco GenV caught my eye doing the Garbage. Instantly, the car did a massive U-turn and chased after this ex-former Shepparton contract truck.
Little did I know at the time of recording this that a few years later, Ararat Rural City Council would take their waste services back in-house and roll out a 4 bin system late last year with the introduction of the Glass and Organics service.
This truck has since been deregistered and most likely scrapped for parts. I was pretty happy to film this beast doing its thing and cheers to the awesome driver. Enjoy!!! ;) ;) ;)

Some trucks out there you just can't get bored of watching, and a Wheelie Waste 4x2 is exactly one of them. Always get intrigued seeing a video of an older ACCO side loader, wondering how we're going to be introduced to the truck and what kind of noise it'll make upon entrance... and you always seem to choose the right clip for the job haha Mean that you were able to video this doing both close together pick-ups and rural type collections where we can hear the truck getting up and going for it down the road (plus the background views are always nice). I thought the scene at 8:30 was cool -- early morning garbo at sunrise, single bins lined up at the houses, bright orange truck turning in, mean Cummins breaking the silence =P I noticed the "Drivers Wanted" sign on the back door, I bet you were wishing you could, if only ey! lol 4:05 happened with that pump whine take-off, followed by the exhaust growl and then the sharp whistle as he backed off the throttle to decelerate, damn it sounds good! The departures at 5:40 and 8:12 also really had the notes I always hope to hear, my satisfaction is high at such points. I guess it wasn't recycle week here, only noticed one yellow lid out where he knocked over his 120L, clearly makes for a cream run! Your chauffeur appeared to do a good job staying out of the way each time he parked up too haha

Glad you enjoyed this one. I reckon it's up there with one of my best videos. I personally liked the opening clip, watching it come up the road and all. Yeah deffs had a loud PTO scream at times, gotta love it when you put your foot down in an Acco that has a loud PTO. You usually get heads turning to see wtf is going on. Would of been a grouse little truck to get around in doing a bush run.

Great video mate this is a vid I watched all the way through. Can’t beat that opening exhaust clip with a long intro of the truck roaring to the bin. Haven’t seen much of this contractor recently on yt so it’s good to see some more. Keep up the great work and looking forward for your next upload!

Thanks but it's a 10 minute video and I just uploaded it 5 mins ago. So you obviously have not watched it if you have commented 4 minutes into the video being public.
