Volvo WX64 - McNeilus "2nd Gen" AutoReach Garbage Truck

Here is without a doubt my favorite side loader that Waste Management is currently running in my neck of the woods! This old girl is a 2002 Volvo Xpeditor WX64 with a "2nd Gen" McNeilus AutoReach automated side load body! This truck originally ran out of the Forest Grove, OR shop before arriving here in Kennewick about 2 years ago. I've made filming this truck a top priority ever since it first showed up, but it was no easy task! This truck has spent the bulk of its time here as a last ditch spare, before finally being assigned permanently to a route earlier this year. Unfortunately, it's assigned route is very spread out rural route, roughly 40 miles outside of town. After several failed attempts to find it out on the country route, I finally caught a break back in May when I spotted it running as a spare on an in-town route! As a result, I am now proud to present you with some footage of this awesome truck! Be sure to turn up the sound on this one, this truck's got a real nice rumble to it!
As always, a giant thank you goes out to the awesome driver for making this video possible!

Man 101260... I’d wait every other Tuesday for this beast to do Recycle at my house. I remember doing Cart Lines for this beast. I kept beating myself up for not filming earlier when this thing ran, and was so happy to see it in your compilation. This thing looks and sounds just like it did, the last time it was running, before it was replaced with a crappy Automizer. Thank you so much for filming this! This really brought back memories.

Every lid left open smh

[@floridatrashtrucks]

That's good. It lets the people know their trash can has been picked up. It also relieves some of the odor out of the can.
