Lemon Grove yard has some pretty cool trucks that run on Saturday, but during the week, most all of the trucks make an appearance. Knowing this, I went to the yard one Monday having my eye on EDCO's Heil or FF Gomez front loader. The Heil already left the yard but I saw this FFG leave so I decided instead of waiting, just follow it to route in downtown. I haven't filmed commercial in downtown before this but it was cool seeing all the places where businesses store dumpsters, most notably, the hotel that stores a 3yd inside that has to be rolled through the hallway corridor and double doors. Notice the wet floor sign that was rigged into a doorstop. Most stops in the early AM are carted and as the route moves further east, dumpsters become more common. During the week, this is the drivers regular truck but on Saturdays he drives a newer ACX McNeilus. Filmed October 2021.
Special thanks to the driver!
