As common as it is to see WM collecting trash manually in, say, Florida, it is a rare sight here in California. Carlsbad is one of the last cities where completely manual collection is still going strong, with two-stream recycling in crates, and trash as well as greens in customer-provided cans. The truck you'll see here is the main kind that collects in the city of Carlsbad, just up the coast from San Diego. A split version of this same truck would be doing the recycling, and another front loader on a Volvo chassis (most commonly) is what does the yard waste. Comment on the video please! I worked hard for this to be a success, and wasted much of my time editing it. Hope you enjoy it though! Photos of this truck to be uploaded at: www.flickr.com
