Warringah


I took these videos one Tuesday after school while all the trucks were out trying to get the rest of my area finished. In this video we have truck 123 taking care of a large set-out by some dirty residents – all this rusted, heavy and loose material was scattered all over this nature strip. Then there is another shorter video of this truck servicing a few other piles, a single clip of 046 feeding on some sofas and a metal cabinet, then finally we have a full truck 122 struggling to get one last pile squashed in. Hope you enjoy the four videos, please rate and comment.

Warringah Shire Clean-Up

May 9, 2011

After five long years of waiting prior to shooting this, I got to film the clean-up! Here you’ll see one of the former vegetation trucks servicing some nice set-outs along a little section of a quiet street. There are some nice potentially destructive items in this video… starting with a sofa! 😀 Hope you enjoy […]

Warringah Residential Garbage (MJ MkIV)

April 28, 2011

It has been almost three months since I uploaded anything, so a new video has definitely been overdue. As most of you know I now work fulltime, so I have been very busy lately and have had a few other garbage truck related priorities to take care of. I don’t have much of an opportunity […]

Here is another video of one of the former vegetation trucks doing the bulk waste in Warringah – not as much destruction in this one compared to the first video, but still lots of packing and crunching! Enjoyed this article?More information on Go Green Tips!

October 3, 2010

This video contains a picture and a short piece of footage of each type of collection vehicle operating in Warringah Shire, between July 2004 and July 2009. I also have many longer videos of each of these trucks uploaded which you may like to take a look at. During my 2009 April holidays I headed […]

Warringah Units — The Old HEIL (Bottles)

September 5, 2010

Here we have the rear loader that was bought off Sutherland Council, a very slow and old Formula 4000 / Acco. This ancient machine doesn’t pack a very good load, and you definitely don’t want to be stuck with it for a long shift on a units run with its pathetic lifter – it’s fine […]

Warringah Christmas Collections Pt 1

August 29, 2010

I shot this little series up during a Christmas collection in my area on the last day of 2008. As I followed the truck around with my camera, it was hard to mistake the excess garbage in the overfilled bins, the lucky magpies digging through the celebration leftovers and all the crap scattered everywhere by […]

Old Warringah Volvo SL

July 2, 2010

There were two of these trucks that acted as spares during the Veolia contract between 04 and 09 – both had MJ bodies and were mounted on Volvos. There were originally about 7 of these that took care of the garbage before Veolia took over the whole contract. In this video we see one of […]

Warringah Units – Recycling Pt 1

May 27, 2010

This was one of the ways the recycling was collected in the units when Veolia had the contract. Paper would be sent to the bottom compartment while the bottles were held up in the top compartment. Personally, I believe using seperate trucks for bottles and paper works a lot better than this, as the job […]
