@@TheNVTrashMan i’m better with the valley’s personally so I can’t give a full number but I know south LA still has at the very least 36884 and 36885, probably some of the others as well. SLA seems to like them the best since several of theirs have/had normal routes recently. West Valley all 7 of theirs are spares and don’t go out that often with the exception of the HX-450, 36942. Which gets used a lot as a floater, but not always. East Valley has only 2-3 and I think only 902 runs regularly out of those. Both my West Valley Condor finds were in May when the yard was still pretty short on trucks so I haven’t seen them as much now. Can’t imagine they will live much longer than the 05 Diesels though, give it a year or two at most

@@faj4335 that’s what i like to hear

@@WasteManNic These condors don’t go out that much so this ones clamps probably just haven’t been replaced yet. East Valley had a diesel Amrep, 36782, with the old clamps that I filmed on loan to West Valley in early May with the old style clamps. They broke on camera and West Valley sent it back to East Valley with a set of the newer clamps. So it’s just a matter of when they wear out not that they replaced every last bit of them

@@Garbageman_Matt they are last resort spares for West Valley pretty much. Hard to find. I’ve managed to get this one and 36899 but nothing since May and probably even less likely now with all these new trucks down there

@@crrmaker70 thanks

@@trashmanthomas9033 Glad to hear it. Actually shot this particular video on the Wednesday route not Friday so maybe that one’s easier idk.

@@garbagetruckspsl8522 thank you

Ex-Antelope Valley, was one of the last Mack LEs retired from Palmdale only a month or so after this was shot

They definitely weren’t, the stand up ones didn’t have A/C either and overheating was a near constant with them on any day over 95 degrees. Loved them but they had to go. This truck was based out of the Antelope Valley yard. I’m not gonna say the truck number to avoid drawing more attention to this, but it shouldn’t take long to figure out which exact unit it was going back through my Mack LE videos. I think this one was so dirty because it was a spare and had been a spare for several years. When they were assigned to standard routes they were usually kept cleaner and overall better taken care of. At the time this was shot the Mack fleet was in its final months of life and the 2-3 remaining units were slated for replacement in only a couple months. Thus the company didn’t want to put more money into them than was necessary to simply make them run the final days. The very few remaining units were being kept alive with parts from their retired brothers. As well as in several cases when the mechanics would literally just bandage a fix if they didn’t have the parts. This truck was a prime example. The control stand broke on it so they tied it back in with rope and bolts. Ladder was broken so they kept it up with a bungee cord etc. The bare minimum.

Thanks! For now, this was a one time thing. But hopefully i will be back in the future

@@Amrepdude499also did you know Varner bros and other companies in Bakersfield are brought out by Burrtec now.

I got some videos of Bakersfield in my channel

Thanks!

@@trashmasterlucas. I’m glad my hastily thrown together phone video was able to impress the Bakersfield master

@@LuisUrbieta thanks

You know it’s funny, maybe it’s because i’m used to the slow Waste Management amreps but gentle is not word i would’ve used to describe this truck lol

Thanks!

@@Amrepdude499 your welcome

LNG and CNG Pete 520 Amrep HX-450s, you can tell they are different because they have the yellow arms

Thank you!

Thanks! Sadly I think that one is done now. It got sent to the main yard by Redondo Junction this week. 788 from this video also was shipped there a couple weeks ago

Thanks, yes these are quite fun but sad to see how quickly they are dropping. I got news today that 36866 which is featured in this video also is probably done which leaves West Valley with 13 diesels

@@Amrepdude499 wow, I got a few clips of that truck thank god. I can’t believe they are dropping like this, but it’s about there time.

@@California_refuse581 866 is still on hold as is 807 in the main repair yard in downtown LA, likely done. Both from this video. Also from this video is 36788 and 36790 which are confirmed done in the junkyard.

@@garbagetruckspsl8522 he doesn’t go to malibu anymore?

@@Amrepdude499 He still does but alot of drivers keep calling out this month so they been having to have sub for a lot of drivers lately this month.

Lol that was my exact thought too so it was pretty funny when the driver asked me “Have you seen the new carts, they are f***kin ugly!” They don’t fit in the grabbers as well as the rehrigs do

💀

Thanks!

No Hulices Tavares

Thanks! It’s a spare truck now and usually those got all sorts of little things wrong with them because nobody takes care of them. Thought it might be a regular in Lake LA because that’s where the driver said he came from but there’s a sticker in the top of the windshield that says “spare”

Good luck!

Sorta does. It was transferred from this yard up north to a yard that apparently doesn’t use it much

Thanks for the update! Surprised the company sent them that far but awesome to hear both still exist!

Thanks for the visit! You too

Thanks! Glad to have grabbed it as well for sure, wish I was able to have gone out their more

Thanks!

Thanks! This was one of two I believe. Anderson had a lot of really interesting and random stuff. Think these were the only LEU Amreps in Socal for any company. G.I. always had the best paint shop in the company. Antelope Valley had them redo 101328 and Blue Barrel used to send them trucks to redo a lot. Now company painting seems to be contracted out rather than some yards putting their own unique touch on the units.

36782, East Valley truck that was sent to West Valley for a day to help out. If you are referring to the license the front one is missing and the rear was covered in landfill dirt so I don’t know.

Agreed, this company is one of the last ones that still run trucks these old. They seem to take a lot of pride in their equipment running as long as possible

@@Amrepdude499 I like and respect it

Thank you! You may, but please do not crop out or block the text that identifies it as my footage

Same

Same but thankfully there’s some photos and videos of twins of them in LA, minus the tag, but this trucks tag was added in a body extension done by EJ

@@Amrepdude499 LA actually had Tag axle amreps. I wish there were pics or videos of LAs tags axle amreps .

@@Garbageman_Matt yes, these however were not. They were delivered to EJ as dual axle 1999 and 2000 Amreps
