San Dimas -- Commercial (WM)

- Here is Waste Management - San Gabriel's Danny Leanos hard at work on his route in San Dimas, California in his new (0:00) and old (7:02) Amrep front loader.
So I have quite a history with Danny...unknowingly. Years ago in 2010, when I first toured Baldwin Park, Danny was in the yard doing a post-trip inspection, so he was the first commercial driver I ever heard about (unfortunately I didn't get to meet him in person that day). Months later, on August 3, 2010, I had just finished a bike ride at Bonelli Park in San Dimas and saw this truck coming down the street. I grabbed some footage of it since it was my first time filming commercial before. The driver was really cool but didn't get to talk to him that day either.
In 2015, I met Kevin at Truck Adventures when he came up to the garbage truck I was showing and as we talked, he told me a driver named Danny picked up at his work in San Dimas in 210969. For the rest of the year, Kevin would tell me so much about Danny that only made me want to meet him more. I finally met Danny one day at the yard in January 2016. A couple months ago, I finally showed Kevin the video of the Autocar just to see if it was Danny, and by coincidence it was! On July 15, I finally had the opportunity to head out to San Dimas. I tracked down Danny and found him at Kevin's work ironically and got a couple stops around there afterwards. Very fun truck to film despite being a "Think Green, Think Clean" CNG unit. And man is Danny fast! I had a great time following him.
Another really cool thing about Danny is that his brother is Leonard Leanos, the 2014 Driver of the Year! Check it out: / 1
If you like the old footage, leave a comment. Still got a couple hours worth of old school video to post if anyone likes it.
Huge thanks to Danny for all his hard work serving the City of San Dimas for the past 32 years!
Thanks to Kevin for all his help with route info! This video's for you bro!

OMG! That Peterbilt Amrep! So awesome to see a violent revving front loader! Rare to see a CNG truck being floored to the max! The old footage brought back the nostalgia from the time when the trucks boasted the huge WM logo before switching to the "Think Green, Think Clean" slogan.
Yeah! It's very entertaining to watch! Haha I miss those trucks...Glad you enjoyed Stuart!
Great video! Love these commercial collection videos! The revving is awesome.
Thanks!
California Refuse Trucks are good thank

Great footage Aaron! Danny seems like a cool guy. He is really fast with his truck. Loved that old school footage you posted thanks for sharing that. Loved how he revved too! Great video Aaron!
Thanks bro! Danny is one of the greatest drivers out there. Glad you enjoyed the old school video, I'll have to mix some of that in with new footage in the future!
Okmll loop l,,,,
Great video! Really neat to see a WM driver that know how to make an otherwise boring truck awesome and fun to watch in action. I wonder what kind of mechanical repairs they have to deal with when the revving begins to take its toll on the engine. Otherwise, keep it revving. It was also fun to watch his unique style of dumping the containers, also evident in that old footage as well.
Thanks! Danny is quite a driver, I really hope to catch him in an LNG truck one of these days. No major issues, just the regular maintenance and small fixes here and there so it looks like it's all good.

Those garbage semis with the forks like that one there are cool lookin. Garbage, fire, yard, & concrete pumper semis are pretty much the only cabover semis I see around here in the USA nowadays. I remember I use to see cabover fifth wheel semis all the time back in the 1980s & down. Of course things have changed such as the law increased the length limit which made cabover fifth wheel semis no longer a necessity.
Excellent worker 👍🏻
Out there almost looking like me, he’s crush’n it! Moving fast getting things done no stop pressure. Im swing lead. Wm4L
Years of operating like that?
Mechanics nightmare.
You know it lol
Awesome video! Danny has such a neat operating style, and he rarely spills anything out of the dumpsters. Danny's truck might be the most entertaining commercial truck in Baldwin Parks fleet. There sure were a lot of full dumpsters that day, you picked a good date to go film. Those old clips are great, he got close to a lid flip with one of those dumpsters. Speaking of dumpsters, it is neat seeing the old dumpster logos with 3 phone numbers. I'm glad you were able to finally film Danny in his Peterbilt, it turned out great!
Thank you! Danny is awesome! Oh I agree, despite being a CNG, it's one of the most entertaining trucks I've filmed. I'm sure you recognized about half the places where this was filmed! Thanks for all your help tracking down Danny, it was a great day!
Llllooooooookoop

nice catch Aaron
Great video Aaron! I always love Commercial collections from you! I like the way he revved this, I also love how you put old footage in. Great job!
Thank you! I hope to get more commercial videos out soon, I've certainly taken a liking to that method of collection lol

Wow
😎
I want to work for this company one day as a driver. Just waiting for them to hire near me
Wow Aaron, great video! Danny definitely is a fast operater! Really like how hard he revved, that definitely was the best part of the video, the revving. I never thought I'd see a new WM truck being revved like that haha! The revving made your typical CNG truck, much, much more fun to watch. Also love the old footage. The camera quality makes it look older than it really is haha that was very cool to see as well, nice looking trucks he has had and has now. Great video Aaron!
Thank you! Haha Danny is such a cool guy! I'm glad you like how the video turned out, I knew holding onto that old footage was the right choice!
Revving hard cool
I have a number in my dumpster it was 1202
cool
Great video! Even though it was a CNG unit I really enjoyed it! I've never seen one rev that hard. Loved the old footage too haha, I remember one of those collected across from my old house in Maywood, I think it came from Compton not too sure. Hope you can get some residential footage soon!
Thank you! Goes to show even CNG truck can be pretty entertaining! Nice! Compton still has some of these WX Amrep FLs. Sure thing! I have some residential footage to post very soon!
I saw that truck when I was in San Dimas
Haha yup! This guy is the beast of San Dimas
This guy sure moves! And cool to see him revving hard too since commercial trucks don't tend to be very fast. I'd love to see more of your old footage.
Yup! Really enjoyed watching him. Sure thing! I'll try to put some up soon

Felicitaciones, excelentes maniobras. Gracias por compartir, es un honor ver su servicio
Love the way this sounds. Great Catch!!!

Me too, very good sounding truck! His old truck actually went to GI. Thank you!
Ahh Okay for some reason i thought i have seen it up here.

Wow great video! Truck looked pretty sharp and sounded awesome! New Petes sure sound different when revved compared to older ones. That old footage was pretty cool too! Those older WX trucks are awesome! Now for a question: do you know what trucks ran for residential in Inglewood during 2000-2006? Was wondering since I lived close to inglewood back then.
Thank you! Yeah it's interesting to see how much the Peterbilt engine's sound has changed since 2012. Glad you liked the older footage! I do know what Inglewood ran - lots of Pete/WhiteGMC/Volvo Octos, 310 Stagg ASLs, and some LE/AFEs. I can find some old pictures and email them to you if you want, PM your email on Flickr if you're interested.
It's a Peterbilt 320 Amrep front loader garbage truck with a Cummins ISLG engine
😊😊
awesome video bro!! ive been wanting to film commercial trucks like this but idk any routes... anyways cool lookin truck. nice work
Thanks!
+WMmaster626 no problem!

Excellent video sir! Wow talk about full on revving, this guy doesn't mess around! Heck the arms couldn't even keep up with him, they kept slowing down lol, he must have exceeded the RPM limit or something. One of the fastest operators to drive up to a dumpster and immediately put the e brake on and start revving it up. crazy how his operating style is similar to that of the older footage you have in here. Great photos also!!
Thanks Jaccob!! Haha I wish I could've seen him in a Diesel, I bet that would've been fun. Definitely one of the best drivers in the yard. After all, 32 years doing commercial gives him some great skills! Glad you enjoyed!
that's actually a decel feature on Amrep FLs, just like on their ASL arm. seems to stand out most when a driver was revving the arms to go pretty quick just before, but it is intended to reduce wear and keep the dumpster from sliding off the forks when the arms meet the bumpers at the top of their cycle. I've never seen it make the arms slow down to the point of causing a spill, so I'm inclined to think its actually a good Amrep feature...and it no doubt can be adjusted. but I do crack up seeing FL guys try and fight it like this..
anyway neat video Aaron, fun watching aggressive commercial drivers who waste no time
That's an interesting feature, I definitely see the benefits to it as well. Curious if most of the drivers out here try to fight it or not, I'll have to see lol
Thanks Scott! Danny's one of the best out there

that first one was fast love it I subscribed to you
Thanks man!

Cool!!!😎😎😎😎
Geez dude needs to take it a little easier on the dam truck and bins sheesh
nice
How to apply for this job?
I’m going
The next one is a Autocar Xpeditor Amrep front loader garbage truck with a Cummins L10G or swapped with Cummins ISLG engine
nice my dad from work saw wm and he recorded it
Awesome man, looking forward to seeing that
I’ve noticed why do all front loader drivers pull the parking brake to dump a bin I never had to do that unless I’m getting off here if they are stabbing a bin to dump pull parking brake why.
And sometimes my you know dumpster keep it open.
