So this was a totally unexpected find. Not only does the truck mark my 100th public upload, but my first CCC and my first Metro-Pak. For those who don't know, the Metro-Pak is essentially a mini McNeilus RL body with a F4000 tailgate/packer.
I went into this community only knowing what day/time trash is manually collected from Pointe Tapatio residents and that Waste Management handles recycling rather than using city provided services. As many of you may know, private neighborhoods (like trailer parks) and apartment/townhouse style communities are allowed to take bids for refuse collection services. Typically, the City of Phoenix also bids and sometimes win the neighborhood but many times that's not the case, such as areas like these where manual collection is needed or underground cans need to be serviced rather than automated carts. I found this truck rather quickly and was awfully confused when I saw a totally blank CCC with a Metro-Pak body. I soon realized this was no trash hauler - the community's contracted landscaping company is also responsible for manually collecting trash set out by its residents every Wednesday.
This video features the neighborhood's "birdhouses" as some like to refer to them as. Four or five residents all pile their bags together, creating some rather large piles and frequent hopper cycles. Thanks to the crew and residents for allowing me to film without much trouble.
And as always, comments are greatly appreciated and mean a lot to me.
