I was a bin man in the 60s. It was hard work but I was 17 years old and very fit. we collected the bins from the rear of the house as they never put the bins out in those days. the bins were full to the brim with ashes, tea leaves, dog muck, garden waste, bricks, rubble etc. The tea slops ran down our backs when we picked the bins up and onto our shoulders, sometimes it took two men to lift the bin if the bin had old bricks and rubble in it. The hot ashes burned our backs and our clothes were always soaking, we weren't supplied with overalls as the bin men are today, so we wore our old clothes. We had fires in the back of the waggon as some of the ashes were still smouldering. The men in the video went to a cafe for breaks, we worked without a break so we could get finished. Despite this, I loved the job as the men I worked with all worked as hard as me, there were no slackers. I had a good friend who worked with me who was killed, he was riding on the step of the wagon, as we all did and he was knocked off when the waggon went too close to a lamp post, and his head was crushed by the back wheels. The driver was so shocked he never drove again for several months. The bin men of today have it good, with no heavy lifting, overalls supplied, and a decent wage.
A few UK councils still do backdoor collection. I did it on Harrogate Borough Council from 2000 to 2006. They are on wheely bins now, but all of what you said above, I remember it from 2000-2006... It was real task & finish then as well. If we finished early on a Monday, we'd go and do an hour of Tuesdays and so on. That way on a Friday, we'd start at 6am, but we'd be finished for 9am. Home, quick shower, hours kip then a long weekend till Monday morning at 6am. Was hard work but I loved it.
@@djzeederbyshire2932 It was hard work in the old days for very little money but I enjoyed it. We were supposed to start at 8 am but always came in early at 7 am. The old timers I worked with were great. I was young and fit so the work was no problem. Years later I worked with men who liked their drink so we had to run behind the wagon so that they could finish early to go to the pub. I didn't drink so I had to stay behind and wash wagons until finishing time. I later went on the road sweeper lorry and I loved it.
this procedure is so absolutely satisfying to watch, every morning when I was younger I would watch the bin lorry slowly creep down the street and the bin men rhythmically loading and unloading the bins and then jump in and go to the next street, so organised.
Thanks so much for filming this, my 15 week old puppy is absolutely terrified of the bin men so have this playing as background noise to try and get her used to the sounds, it’s really helped me and her out :)
it would be great to get a shot of the top rail as it's job is to stop the bin falling in and it also helps to dislodge any waste stuck inside. The top rails differ in council wagon, but this one here looks substantial and it doesn't wobble at all.
The bin men here can't even be bothered to put bins back where they found them. And the bins have got wheels. In the 70s bin men had to go round the back and pick them up over their shoulders and carry it all the way to the lorry and empty it themselves. Now they have it easy and still can't be bothered to do what they are supposed to. IDLE GITS!!!!!
A bin man once said to me years ago if you get a new TV or microwave or item then rip the box up and put it in a black bag and then put it in the bin don't put the full box outside on top of the bin because Not just your neighbours but other people who are walking past like burglars or know somebody whose a burglar now knows that you have just got a new item and it is worth trying to break in and get it it's the same with if you've got a caravan on your driveway and then it stood there for 11 months a year and then all of a sudden in August it's gone it's only natural that there's nobody in the house because they're on holiday ,,yes ,, somebody might be coming round to check on the place but they're not there 3 in the morning are there
Thanks for recording I need to put the sticker with the number and was wondering which side to stick it to. Looks like the back side would be best as the front gets some lorry support bits touching it
@@davidsimpson8737 Starting with the Plymouth crew next monday,any tips,bit worried my legs might explode.But i was a postman for 8 years ,so maybe im ok.Dont drink much ,and try to eat well.
@@chicowasp just don't try rush round too quick on your first couple of weeks, take in the areas your covering and give your body time to adjust to doing it, first couple of weeks are normally the painfulist, once you get past them you'll be fine mate
If you get a good crew, like the ones in recent videos, with the truck VN16 0ZX, then theyre definitely faster than a side loader however this crew a side loader would be faster
During when we STAYED in the EU I remember when bin men used to take every bit of rubbish or recycle every week but now they LEAVE rubbish all over the grounds this day and age. ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL!

They probably have to empty 10x the amount of bins nowadays and probably get crap from pencil-pushers in the office if their round takes too long.
Yep because 2 dumps a day that’s why
@@marcussheen exactly mate.
this truck was on my black bin round when i lived in north east derbyshire district council
It can’t as it is a rotherham truck
In the words of the late spike milligan if you feel low down and can't find romaaaaaaaaace leap in to a dustbin and dance ha ha ha ha ha ha
My local council used to have a Mercedes-Benz truck not a Dennis
We have Dennis in Manchester. Only 2-3 Mercedes at the council I work for.
They might just have one Mercedes actually. I know they have 2 I think it was at the council i used to work for where I live
My 1 year old is transfixed ❤🎉
A bin man once said to me years ago if you get a new TV or microwave or item
then
rip the box up and put it in a black bag and then put it in the bin don't put the full box outside on top of the bin
because
Not just your neighbours but other people who are walking past like burglars
or know somebody whose a burglar now knows that you have just got a new item and it is worth trying to break in and get it
it's the same with if you've got a caravan on your driveway and then it stood there for 11 months a year and then all of a sudden in August it's gone
it's only natural that there's nobody in the house because they're on holiday ,,yes ,, somebody might be coming round to check on the place but they're not there 3 in the morning are there
I live at Slough, We get Dennis
Great one mate nice lolly )😉👍

BenAnimations AndMore - Roblox general waste
Banmeredith2020 - Roblox Same as my black bin
Black bin is for general waste
Arent you guys allowed to stand on the back side of the truck?
No unfortunately not, well I've heard footplates are allowed but have to be to a strict safety stand but I'm not overly sure
Health and safety took them off its illegal to stand on the back of a moving vehicle now
so exciting but i don’t like bins
what is the point of the video?
Every crew at my place, are probably 100 times quicker than this lot
i bet they are
Wanna medal?
Haha were on job and knock in Manchester and get paid for the full day whatever time you finish should see the speed we run around 🤣
@@jackpickford7487 yeah it was where i was but theyve changed it to half 3 finish to make it fair on the slow lot
@@judgejudyslover already got one aint I, knicked it from your mum.
Looks like a normal garbage day in the neighborhood.
Sure was!!
Not as good as the ol automated sideloader...
If you get a good crew, like the ones in recent videos, with the truck VN16 0ZX, then theyre definitely faster than a side loader however this crew a side loader would be faster
do you have a brown bin?
No but we have a green bin
which bins best
oi who likes bins most outa you 2
cool
They need to buy automatic trucks
That is automatic.
Haha no bro I’m talking about the once with side arm like heil trucks we have in the USA 🇺🇸 we do about 15 to 16 hundreds accounts per day
