Amrep Octo Front Loader: Commercial Waste Services

Seeing an Amrep in person for the first time was quite the experience in itself, but this one was running an interesting route with cool bins, had bottom forks, and a master driver at the controls. Easlily one of my all time favorite trucks filmed. If I remember correctly the driver told me this truck is either a 98 or 99. They also have a green older style Hardox body I spotted collecting in Koreatown on the same street as the UPW Hardox. All in all Commercial Waste seems like a very well run operation. They dominate the Little Tokyo area where this was filmed, both front load and roll off.

I spent two mornings following this truck, that's why a couple of the clips are of the same stops. Thanks a ton to the driver, as you can see a pro with his truck. Filmed July 25 and 26, 2012
