I use to be a trash man years ago, bro you should have opened the back up and dumped that damn trash out ! That truck probably cost over 150 grand. The hell with that trash !
Or someone emptied an ashtray with a hot one in it and threw it out just before you picked it up. My grandmother set the house on fire emptying an ashtray.
Happened to me 3 times in 30 years. First one was a one time bbq that was still a light.. last two both recently was cellphone batteries they short and go off like an incendiary when they bend . Don't take it personally bud.
Lithium batteries are a big problem. Dozens of garbage fires a week are down to people disposing of them in the trash. Work on your lawmakers to set up proper disposal schemes. They can be recycled, so it's a waste to just bin them, quite apart from the risk of fire.
If this happened to me i would of closed the blade if I didn't have a fire extinguisher that's why you never throw anything away that's flammable one of the most important rules when you picking up garbage and my friend you still have to finish your route

It's called an occupational hazzard. People throw combustible stuff out all the time. This was the day it flared up. Happens sometimes.
This happend to my uncle, he just dumped whole thing rite in street and called 911,saved the high dollar truck.
I don’t think someone did it on purpose they probably put the wrong thing in there. That’s why fire extinguishers are on trucks cause things happen.
Is he in Bloomfield Hills Michigan? I am nearby the area and I see these trucks a lot
I like it how he's not helping trying to put it out.
He works on the truck and he used the fire egstinguisher already worth reading the desc every time:)
At Republic services they train you to dump your load and fires happen all the time a lithium battery will start a fire no one tried to kill you
Eject the load, drive away from the fire...
Yea, i have heard of plan b also.
it was the secret service they have sent an assassin.. nice explanation
Is this in Bloomfield hills Michigan?
Yes, not Bloomfield Hills Russia
Oh cool. A visual simile of my life.
Tony soprano was seen in the area

Someone throw out expire bomb without knowing it still work.
Why didn't you dump the load while it was small??????
More like someone threw out some batteries or somethings flammable in the garbage that ignited due to a spark ..duuhhh
Why not dump it out
Exactly
Better pay up
This is why it takes 45 minutes to get customer service on the phone.
Do you have water?
Someone is trying to kill you? Doubt that in its entirety. How about a thank you to the gentleman who put the fire out. Good god!
Call the fire department.
Yea who’s the person at the end putting it out
@@recycleiscool4627 Yeah
Did somebody set that shit up?.
Playing the victim what a surprise.
Man.

> that's why you never throw anything away that's flammable ????? Most trash is flammable, paper, plastic, cloth, they all burn quite well.
سمبري توي كلمي

He shouldn't have made such a big deal out of the xtra can the week before, then people wouldn't have to set chit up on they garbage collector.
It wasn’t that
