Sometime back in 2018/2019 when Suez was still servicing Randwick i managed to make my way over to the Tuesday Area of Randwick itself in hopes to try document some more of the Suez and Randwick in house fleets. Through out the morning i stumbled across a few Suez Acco Gen V's handling the garbage and a council Volvo / Gen V handling the green waste. After loosing one of the Acco Gen V's i was strolling along following rows of empty bins looking for some full ones until i started walking down Cowper Street and spotted SL028 pumping out rows of 240 Garbage from the dense unit area. I managed to get a few shots going along Cowper St and Alison Rd before loosing the truck as it took off down the road and couldn't be spotted again :(
Originally SL028 was built up to service Ryde Council under WSN operations until WSN was taken over by Sita / Suez. Once Ryde Council upgraded their side arms to some newer Acco / Superior Paks. A majority of the Acco / MKIV's where either resprayed white or left in the iconic green and used in other Sita contracts as spares, to replace other worn out trucks or used to complete extra collection services in councils such as Penrith and Shoalhaven who provide an extra Garbage & Recycling pick up over the busy Christmas and New Year periods. Unfortunately it has just been discovered that the body has been taken off SL028 and the Cab / Chassis is currently up for auction (As of 20/06/2023)
Cheers to the driver for giving me the green light to film i hope everyone viewing enjoys :)
