Yep.. I did it over 20 years ago already, and it all depends on your driver and route. This residential area route doesn’t seem to bad, and the driver waits for the bagger to get back on. When I did it the drivers were assholes because they got incentive based pay.. faster you do your route, the more they get paid, so your running to keep up with the truck because some of them would just leave you if you weren’t fast enough and call dispatch to bring out someone else. Your knees and ankles/feet take a beating jumping on and off the truck 1k+ times a day.

When I was a kid my favorite day of the week was garbage day. I'd follow along behind the truck, watching all the good stuff getting thrown in and crunched up. A neighbor had a TV repair shop, and would frequently have upwards of a dozen unremarkable TVs out for the trash. This was back when many sets had wooden cabinets. It was particularly pleasurable to watch and hear them get crunched. When I was a little older I started hanging out in his shop, and occasionally scored a particularly nice old wood cabinet TV, the kind with doors that closed in front. I'd take them home, take out the guts, and make them into various other cabinets, like book cabinets. When I moved here in 2001 the city still had manual trash pickup with guys following behind the truck like in this video. What I found interesting here was that the guys were pretty young - and white. As a kid in the big city the guys seemed so much older, and almost exclusively black. All of them, black or white, were always cheerful and friendly to me. I got a talking to by a supervisor here back in 03 when I gave the guys a case of beer for a Christmas gift lol, he said I should just give gift cards [I used to produce quite a bit of bulky, strange trash down here as a result of my hobbies.]

Now they send us the side lift & the driver is careful not to break things. Only once they broke my bin accedentely & left me a note stating that they are willing to replace it. So i didn't make a fuss & spoke with the driver two weeks later, he apologized for the mistake, the bin slipped out of the claw & smashed to the ground. I appreciated the fact that he let me know of the incident, so i told his boss , keep him he dose a good job & is very mindful, i was told the man has been doing this for 20 year's & has always been mindful.
