Wodonga Green-Waste

On a beautiful summer's day years ago, the MelbourneGarbo and I went on another day trip out North to see what we could find. One of the councils we stopped by was Wodonga Council. I had a feeling that there would still be a good chunk of old equipment being used in the contract, but around the time and after I filmed this video, a few of the old girls, including the truck in the video, have since been replaced. One of the trucks we came across was #070. A 2007 Iveco Acco with a Superior Pak Raptor on it. For its age at the time, it was in pretty good condition and the engine sounded pretty healthy. My favourite part was the beginning of the video, getting a shot of it coming up a small hill and listening to the orchestra coming from that Cummins ISC05 engine.
I actually came across this truck being used as a spare in the Latrobe contract and got a video of it doing garbage. Since that, it has since been sold off at the auctions. Cheers to the awesome driver for letting me video, he was pretty keen. Enjoy!!! ;) ;) ;)

Nice mate. Don’t see much garbage trucks with bull bars anymore.

I still recall you telling me about this Wodonga trip and sending a photo of this truck, I reckon it was longer ago than I think too! Spotted old mate a couple times at 4:05 and 12:15 standing back enjoying the show haha Totally agree the opening clip was the best part, definitely tops with the wind carrying the sound... or listening to the orchestra as you worded it =P The music was on point from 6:20 as well, hearing the high idle holding its note through the wind as he was turning around. Then from 9:25 got some real nice speed tunes with a combo of engine roar and pump whine, gunning it to that last bin and afterwards leaving the street - always love how well your camera picks up the noise. Gotta say this truck loses a few points with the long slide extensions, there was nothing swift and smooth about it, even appeared jerky at times, so made it a bit painful to watch from around 4:10 lol I'm curious how many of these they had with bull bars, turns out the side loader I got photos of in Greater Hume was 072, also wonder which council this 070 initially worked in. Really was a cool fleet Cleanaway had running in the region... seeing this video made me reflect a bit on the trucks I saw in 2012 and the variety was on point, all topped off with the original blue and branding.

It was a good day out this one! I'm pretty certain this truck has been scrapped since. I actually videoed it doing garbage over in Latrobe probably 4 or 5 years ago now. One of the best sounding ones I've come across, truck looked real healthy for its age. Not sure how many are left but there wouldn't be many left up there. Still got a few E4's floating around in the Northern parts of Victoria but for how much longer who knows!
