- Here it is L.A. Sanitations first Amrep N3 arm!
This truck was orignally bought with the original Amrep arm but they decided they wanted to test one out so they swapped the arm.
Its been a while since this truck has been bought but it finally found a route! Thanks to a few inside sources. ;) I was able to finally track down this beast after months of asking and wondering where it went. Overall I can't complain, it does somewhat suit L.A.s conditions. From what I heard the N3 arm is built more toward easier maintenance since there are less sensors and breaking systems for the cart system. As well as it being substantially lighter by about a few hundred pounds I believe. Overall I think the city couldn't have chose a better spot to put this on route extremely compact and lots and lots of trash. Well I can blab all day about this truck but what do you guys think?
I hope y'all enjoy!
A personal thanks to the driver for his kindness and professionalism in those streets with impatient not so smart drivers just simply making his job harder. He handled it really well with cars just coming out from blind corners and always trying to get in front of him.
Thanks again to the driver and the City of Los Angeles Sanitation for making this possible.

Awesome video! Absolutely love how this truck has to deal with the arm slowing down at the top and is still able to flip those lids. very fun to watch!

think Mike is correct about the timing being the biggest factor in lids staying open or shut when the N3 is through with them. awesome driver and stellar filming here, I'm a major fan of 14:30 and onward, how you stayed on the tilt portion even as he lowered the carts.
Haha glad you were able to head out there and find this truck! Wow! What a cool truck! I was quite surprised to see it flip lids and the speed of the arm was much faster than before. I was also quite shocked and surprised to see LA finally use this truck on route. I'm also surprised to hear they're gonna buy more of these after hearing that a lot of drivers hated this arm. Man so many insanely long lines of trash too, it's actually pretty sad in a way. I hope to find this truck sometime this summer as well. Great footage! Can't wait to see more of these pop up!
Thank you Kevin! Yeah im sure its just warn in now or they tweaked it a little lol. It is sad to see those lines but it is nice for the video. It was probably 80% recycling in those carts. In the few I looked in the whole cart could have been dumped in the recycle.
I came here to figure out if I parked too close to a trash can in L.A. Thank you for this video!
So... You're the first one to film this! I was wondering who would be first to film LA's new N3s. Really like the speed of this one, and I'm also happy that it flips lids. After some of the other videos of the N3 arm, I was getting a little scared!
I guess I am! I figured this one would be flipping lids by now. I think it just takes a little while to break them in. :) Thanks!
Ay dude! I just filmed this driver today. I've filmed him in 36513 before. He was in 488 today , 206 was down. He mentioned you! Real nice guy!
Haha Awesome! I figured you would have filmed him before. How was he operating today? I'm sure you were after the n3?
+TrashMaster684 & yes a very cool guy.
Revving but not as hard as he did in 513. He was goin pretty fast in 488 though. No, was after some Amrep Octos and 944 but couldn't find it.
TheNVTrashMan we never had a 488 before that’s Charlie one as we call him so ur info is wrong
And people say N3 can't flip lids lol. So this is a south LA truck? Driver looks very familiar to me. I think I've filmed him before in an Amrep Octo, if it truly is him. Arm moved pretty fast which made it a lot of fun!! Great job!
Lol I know. I was almost thinking it was going to flip only a few but I was wrong! I don't think Amrep will ever make an arm that wont flip lids unless you dont want them too of course haha. This one is pretty close to not flipping them though. Thank you!
Awesome Video TrashMaster684 and Efficient Driver !
Great video Sean! I'm glad that your the first one to get video, I can't wait to see the 25 that they are getting soon on route. I also wonder which yards will get the n3 trucks. I sure will miss the old trucks and the LNG Octos when the 80 new trucks replace them though. Nice video again!

Future of LA Sanitation if what I hear is true. And I couldnt be happier either. I really like these and this one is particularly smooth too which is awesome to see. good stuff, Ive been waiting for someone to track one of these down. theae things move through a line of carts so much more efficiently than the older versions too, especially compared to modern versions of the previous arm. I hope this arm takes Amrep to the next level.
80 New CNG Petes coming 25 have the N3 arm. Its a nice change. I just hope they keep it optional down the road.
Thanks mike
Great video! I noticed this truck lid flips a lot unlike others. Is this the only one LA has? Liked and faved!
If you really like this truck, you should be happy to here LA is getting 25 more!!
What Kanyisa said. I think its just warn in and LA isnt afraid to flip lids lol. Thanks!!
4:06 notice how every other lid is getting flipped
Enjoyed this video so much😀
I figured someone else would get footage of 206 before Tony, Kirk and I did, as we planned to do so sometime in these weeks following the South LA Open House where we got the route. Nevertheless, awesome video. I don't think I've ever seen an N3 open nearly every lid on its route, then again this is after all an LA truck ;). Did you happen to ask this driver's opinion on how he likes it compared to the regular arm? I personally won't mind seeing more of these around the city once their next order comes in. In terms of the actual trash in this video, it really can't get more South LA with lines of overfilled black cans probably full of recyclable materials and the occasional blue can full of trash. Speaking of which, brings me to a question that no one has ever seemed to be able to give me a straight answer on... Does South LA take all trash to an MRF to be sorted?? Otherwise I don't see how in the world the city can claim to recycle 76% of its trash. Besides that, thanks for sharing this unique footage. Did you ever happen to see my video of 36270 in West LA? We are finally starting to get in the 2016 units, slowly but surely.
Thank you thank you! Unfortunately I didn't ask but when I asked to film he said, "Yeah, as long as you can keep up." Lol so I guess he likes it.
I always notice the single huge unflattened box in the recycle. Well you asked the right person. :) Sadly L.A. only MRF's its recyclables. This all goes to C.L.A.R.T.S. in South LA its just a huge transfer station then it ends up in one of our many local landfills. All trash picked up by LA sanitation gets a free ride to the dump whether its a strait trip or a few different trips it gets there. I think its calculated by volume. I really don't understand that either. Plus, that 76% is always different a different percentage everywhere you look. What L.A. actually dumps the most commodity wise is trash, then yard waste, and lastly recycling. & yes I have seen it about damn time lol. Im surprised you guys didn't get all the CNG trucks. Thanks for commenting!
+SoCalGarbageTrucks Very disappointing but I guess that's what it is. I almost feel like the city kinda gave up. Lol you sure about Athens? That new mrf still landfills like 60%. Recology or crown are the ones to actually sort the best believe it or not lol. Solutions? Well we can't educate people so I think the city should just mrf both trash and recycle but they shouldnt mix them they should take them to separate mrfs to prevent further contamination. Or we should do what SF does and just give everyone a 30 for trash and ticket them when they contaminate. lol I think that works best. I mean the city hasn't even started a curbside organics program like everyone else seems to be doing. At this point I don't think we will see change until a landfill closes or something.
+TrashMaster684 Plus contamination throughout the city is pretty bad. No matter where you are there's always those houses that just either don't know or don't care to recycle.
+TrashMaster684 My bad for the long thread but of we open mrfs I feel like they have to be city or govt. run since they will be more regulated but since we contract out we really don't know what happeneds with our recycling. In reality it's about money recycling gets expensive especially since it's so unorganized. In the end it's societys fault since this is a public service. They cater to our needs and what we want. I mean a lot of people just don't want to recycle.
Awesome video!!! I've been so excited to see this on route! It's really interesting to see how different drivers operate the N3, like this guy just throws the arm down (which is really fun to watch) similar to the WM one in El Cajon, and there's other drivers that sort of stop the arm on the way down, like the Republic one. I sort of expected LA to operate their N3 like this haha Man there's a lot of trash out there! You think the lines out here are bigger than the ones you filmed in Chinatown [almost a decade ago lol]? Curious how long this truck has been on route, I noticed the rims are still super shiny which looks awesome. Do you know if this truck came with those mirrors? After West Valley, I realized a lot of their HX-450s have those new mirrors, so I'm curious if they were installed within the past few years since I never knew so many trucks had them. Fantastic post! Great to finally see this!
Ooooohhh. Thats a tough one lol. Id have to say its hard to compare. I think Chinatown might have heavier lines but in a smaller square mileage. I think its just the fact that this guy picks up a lot and I mean a lot of trash I dont think this has been out that long and yes this came with those mirrors I believe this is a 2012 or 2013 model. Im sure this truck has just broken in nicely since it is quite smooth. Thanks for dropping by!
Nice video
Gerardo Hernandez love you
never mind..........kidding I got to test this truck at the west la open house but it was different
Great video! Who says a N3 can't flip lids what Is the call sign for this truck
They do it just depends on the driver who operates it . My city is served by calmet and they're really strict about the lid staying shut.
great video trashmaster684 .i think this is my favorite CNG truck.which yard is this truck from,i loved the cart variery
This is your yard
What Kanyisa said. lol Thanks for commenting!
+Kanyisa Ahegbebu oh okay
He is my trash diver in south la 206
Why the city of Los Angeles never really got the N3 arm I myself don’t mind but lots of drivers don’t like the N3 arm
Is this unit still in service?
Is it ok if I use your thumnail for one of my videos please
Yeah it's okay but give me credit for it plz.
What kind of credit

i dont know how long the city of los angeles plans on rebuilding these 25 year old trucks...i live in the habor area and i havent seen a new truck in all these years. years..kinda pathetic for a city like los angeles to keep recycling the same truck for all these years...
matthew kelly I don't think the city owns any automated trucks that are 25+ years old. The oldest automated truck at your yard is probably an 00' or 01'. Not pathetic, if the city can maintain the same truck for that amount of time with the abuse of the drivers. I believe your yard has just obtained a few new trucks.
haha i doubt that..in fact once or twice the harbor area did get a new truck or 2 they were sent off to other districts and yes i know the trucks have been around that long just look at them..besides 01 02 is a long time for a truck that runs 5 days a week all year long....
the oldest automated trucks in the city are '01s, none of which work in the Harbor area. Harbor's primary fleet is '05 and '06 trucks with 4 brand new 2017s. Nothing wrong with old trucks, often times they're more reliable than the new ones. No need to be wasting money on replacing something that's not broken.
WasteManTony
matthew kelly I doubt that LABOS has any more trucks that were made in the 90s. No, it's not pathetic. There is nothing wrong with them running old trucks other than the pollution they put into the air. Anyways, some of their old trucks still work good, and just like what Tony said, there is no point in wasting money to buy new trucks when the other trucks still work good. Also, LABOS hasn't only been running old trucks. They have been using shiny new 2017s.
