Holy shit dude... that was a pretty solid video, definitely not expecting that much trash haha. Nice work for sure! Beverly's Condor RL sounded mean too!
Nice work, I always thought that LA did everything for things like cleanups but I guess I have to consider those other areas, Nice to see footage of the sweepers, I used to take footage of them and I think I have a couple of clips on my computer, Those Athens FLs were awesome! The Beverly Hills clean up teams were good, I enjoyed that Condor RL the most. I can imagine the clean up SaMo had to do on the beach after runners crossed the finish line. Great and creative idea for a video!
I am one of the volunteers at the Mile 19 Water Station in Westwood every year since our church is right there on the route. I can tell you that LA sanitation is not involved with the cleanup. The only trucks that are involved are street services. They bring these extra long dump trucks and put all the trash in them. The front loader tractors pushes all of the cups and trash in to a pile and then loads it in to the dump trucks. Then the fleet of street sweepers comes through and sweeps the road getting anything that the tractors missed.
Nice work!!! Great opening shot, and it actually is nice to see some of LA's street services division. On to Athens - I was quite surprised to see that they were running ACX/McNeilus' with Dumpsters when they have a ton of low entry front loaders with Curotto/carry cans. Nonetheless, that was cool to see, I've always had a thing for Dumpster-turned-carry can collection lol Interesting that they had a contracted sweeper company with them instead of their own fleet. I had no idea Bev Hills had that Metro Pak. The sweepers collecting all those cups were pretty awesome. I always found sweepers pretty cool too. That Condor was heaps cool. What a great sounding unit. Is that their regular bulky items truck? Nice Santa Monica stuff, their RL looks great. Curious what LA ran. I would imagine that a carry can, especially the LA style ones, would be useful for these events since you could sweep lots of things into it compared to RLs. Fantastic job! Really enjoyed watching the teamwork needed to clean up the streets, and seeing the equipment in convoys, like the sweepers, was especially great. Looking forward to next year!
+WMmaster626 I wish I could get some of Street Services' PB Loaders and their roll-offs but they're pretty much the exact opposite of Sanitation: unfriendly and unprofessional lol. I was a little surprised by Athens' truck choice too. I believe both of Bev's McNeiluses handle alley clean ups. I'm curious as to what LA had running too. They do have some loaders and modified Vipers they use for illegal dumps so those may have been a possibility. Thanks Aaron!
Excellent video! Wow that's a lot of water cups lol. I thought that Athens truck collecting all that trash was pretty fun. Wow Beverly Hills has some cool RLs. All their waste goes to a dirty MRF, right? Great work with this one!
This is just bad all the way through from the rear loaders that let the garbage just fall back to fill the hopper to the plugged sweepers that through to garbage all over the place. This is as useless as those amusement cranes that won't grab the teddy bear.
Great work! Love seeing Street Services doing there thing.
