Leichhardt Garbage Trucks

Here is some more rare manual collections footage from my side of the world, this time with the trucks in Leichhardt Municipal Council, found in Sydney’s inner west. In Leichhardt, the council takes care of the garbage, greens and clean-up and URM is contracted to do the recycling collections. Here are the two small 4×2 rear loaders, a HEIL and Compaction Systems that do the residential routes, knocking off the rest of the Friday garbage run. I got there pretty much just in time that morning, there were only two streets to service… and that was just after 7:30am! I noticed the collections done by the councils are completed pretty early in that area. Good examples would be Strathfield who finish around 6:30am and then Burwood who finish around 7:30am, even the council garbos that finish around 9am have it pretty good! Anyways, cheers to the friendly teams of garbos, please enjoy, rate, comment and take a look at the recycling collection if you haven’t already… Body Make: HEIL Environmental / Compaction Systems Model: 15m Formula 4000 / 15m Maxipak Chassis: Hino GH Council: Leichhardt Municipal Contractor: Council Works Collection Type: Garbage / Trash
