Marrickville Garbage Pt 1

This time I bring you some footage of the manual collections from Marrickville, found in Sydney’s inner west. This footage comes from the typical, tight, one-way street you can find in this council, which was lined with heaps of 140L bins – you will see why they only use rear loaders. One of their yellow Compaction Systems / Ivecos stars in this video, which has a rare enclosed hopper set-up with the MacDonald Johnston UBL (Universal Bin Lifter) used to empty the bins. I reckon this truck could easily be mistaken for a truck in the UK… could be an older Dennis Phoenix for all someone knows; guess the only give-away would be the cab šŸ˜€ A thanks to the Marrickville crew hard at work… the garbos who deserve more than a cold beer after a days work. Hope you enjoy this footage, please rate and comment after watching. Also be sure to check out part 2 and the video of the recycling collection which features one of their new trucks. Body Make: Compaction Systems (now Superior Pak) Model: 19m Maxi Pak Chassis: Iveco Acco Council: Marrickville Contractor: Council Works Collection Type: Garbage / Trash
