Thank you all for pushing this channel over 2,000 subscribers on March 5, 2013, and as a treat, this will be my latest video.
I am posting this video for educational and historical purposes, since this is the ONLY known "in action" video of this truck. You are looking at E-Z Pack's "Residential Loader" or "Automated Front Loader" filmed in 1996. Both of those names were used to describe this body on the videos I've seen. This truck was around briefly in the mid-90s, but was quickly discontinued. There are NO known "living" examples of this model still operating in the US.
If anyone has seen one of these trucks in operation, please leave a comment with: Hauler name, Location, and Date.
I know several of these trucks were owned by LeMay Enterprises and then by Waste Management. One of these trucks was recently spotted in a junk yard in the north eastern US, other than that, these trucks are incredibly rare. There are a few similar versions of this truck operating outside of the US and those are built by Faun.
Other than that, I do not have anymore information on this vehicle. Until recently, I never thought I'd see a video of this truck in action. When I stumbled across this video, I knew it had to be shared. I hope all of you enjoy this look at an incredibly interesting piece of automated collection history.
As always, thanks for watching.
