On Monday, December 13, 2021 at approximately 1:05 PM Eastern, I noticed smoke coming from a garbage truck on Sainte-Catherine Street near the corner of Drummond Street, located in the downtown sector of Montreal, Canada.
Upon closer inspection, I soon realized that there were flames coming from the back. I knew right away tha this would likely turn into a classic garbage truck fire.
At first, the garbage collection crew tried to use a small fire extinguisher to extinguish the flames, but the effort had little to no effect.
As the garbage truck turned the corner on Drummond Street, a completely unmarked police vehicle followed the truck and sounded it's horn to alert traffic. The officer also tried to put the flames out with a fire extinguisher, but once again, there was no results.
Finally, after a few minutes of chaos, pumper fire truck 225 from Montreal Fire Station 25 responded to the call. Fire Station 25 happened to be just down the street from the fire.
The garbage truck then turned into an alleyway. That's where fire crews began to spray water onto the flames inside the back of the truck - eventually the back of the garbage truck opened up to allow easier access - and the fire was quickly extinguished.
The fire was mostly likely caused by a battery that was thrown out into the trash.
This video was filmed on Monday, December 13, 2021 at approximately 1:05 PM Eastern.

30+ year Firefighter, here... If you're hauling (regular) trash and the load starts smoking or burning, try to find a safe place to dump it out before your truck gets destroyed. We'll deal with it on the ground. (Emphasis on the "safe place", though. And yes, sometimes that's not easy to find.)

Around me, if one catches fire, they're instructed to dump the load on the road and deal with the cleanup later in low density/open areas. In an area like a city, it should be kept within the truck like shown in the video.

Yeah that's actually the best way. I saw it a few times too in my country when a garbage truck caught fire. (What is rare here.) Dump the load, at best on a wide open space, that makes it way easier for the fire department, and when the fire is out call a wheel loader to clean up. But sometimes the fire already damaged something on the hydraulics or something and it cant be dumped anymore.

The truck has a very very limited amount of water. If you spray the water out at full pressure nonstop you will run out of water after 2 min max. And after that you are dry until you find a fire hydrant. Therefore they are most likely very conservative with their water as long as the fire does not hop over to other things.

Interesting that the engine had to operate it's primer. Do they run dry pumps in the winter? Seems unusual for a city department with short response areas. Once the preconnect line is flaked out (should be 15-30 seconds for this easy operation) , the line should have been charged. Monday morning quarterback, but it would have been better/easier to lay in from the hydrant, eliminating the hand stretch to the hydrant.

Looked coordinated to me. Tank water takes while to be applied because the pump had to build pressure first
