Wow what a great video. It is cool to see so many different camera angles. Especially enjoyed watching your skills from inside the cab; using the forks to hook the bin out and put it back after emptying along with using all the controls (which I guess becomes second nature). Seeing the bins emptied and the compactor running from the top of the truck was also very cool. Thanks for posting, keep up the good work.
This is sick! I live in Seattle now and was fortunate enough to catch one of CWRRs FLs on commercial cardboard this past summer, albeit at one stop. It must’ve been the same truck featured here with the hopper footage - judging as the cab shield is missing on this one, and it still is in present day lol. Very cool to see this, thanks for sharing! Hoping to capture a full video of the MR in the future, CWRR seems like a neat company!
So shortly before I left the company, I was training a new guy who had zero waste experience. The Mack was not my favorite to drive (just not a fan) and what made it even more irritating was the cart attachments the owner stuck on the fork bar. You had to raise the arms with the forks out or you'd hit the cab and rip the cab shield off (ask me how I know...I broke the glass on the cab once). So this driver I was training as I was transitioning out in 2016 forgot to curl the forks into the hopper and ended up running into a sign on the freeway and completly sheered the arms off the truck and I'm sure eventually the cabshield ended up getting ripped off the truck at a later point because of the cart attachments (which is why you don't see them on the truck anymore). Anyway, hope you enjoy the backstory. Dave, the owner, was a good guy to work for.
@@ZGeroux someone else owns CWRR now or is it still Dave? I was wondering if they’d be willing to let me do a ride along in the Mack in order to film the distant stops - maybe you know if they’d be chill with that? Very cool to hear the backstory tho!
@RecologySpencer Dave still owns the company. I'm not sure if he'd do a ride along. It's been almost 8 years and they've moved locations. I'm not sure where he's based out of now or who he has driving for him.
