Garbage truck Fails of 2019 

The precision of these guys driving a 25 ton vehicle, lining it up, and picking up knocked over cans, is something to be admired. 🤯🙌

i love how this kid just follows a garbage truck around all day

Here from penguinz0

Charlie has brought us together once more.

8:18 I cannot believe I'm laughing this hard at a trash can

Damn neighborhood can’t straighten their bins

Can we just thank the kid for helping

8:17 I’d just quit at that point

8:12 i kinda wanted to see the mcdonalds cup get run over 😂😂

Props to the kid recording, dude is funny

Really helps me realize that trashmen deserve some respect. Also those are some flimsy trash cans

Aren't you supposed to leave your bins a certain distance apart so when one is picked up the other isn't knocked over

Here you have a free spirit child that doesn't yet know what's ahead of him, and a grown man who wishes he could go back in time.

These guys are doing the absolute best they can, There are multiple issues that they are battling, first waste management needs to check their grippers, and belts, the fact they don't close fully is one issue. Next residents need to space their containers out, and there won't be as many issues. Third, because carts are so close they fall over and these carts to tend to not have the best balance issues. I don't see any driver error.

basically they need to spread the bins apart, and keey them straight,,,, so recycle and garbage in the triveway on each corner of it

Who's here from Penguinz?

I remember once about 15 years ago. Our normal driver was running extremely late, his helper quitting after the first hour. He got to our neighborhood at 7:30pm with 172 houses. I helped him out through the whole neighborhood he even let me run the packer. He wouldn't let me ride from stop to stop because there was a supervisor following him in the previous neighborhood. He was so grateful. He said I cut his time by about an hour and a half.

He never turn the truck side switch off, and he never had the key in his pocket,I've been driving for solid waste 20 years

3:04 Instantly snaps the lid off ahahahhah

bless this kid. i used to do stuff like that, some people are mental and stack the bins really close together and after the garbage trucks leave the whole street is littered with garbage from spilled bins...

Who else is here from Cr1tikal's video?

Thanks for this, Charlie.

I love watching my garbage trucks around Norfolk VA. Worst trash man Ever!! Hahahahahaha

He had one jab

It's amazing how I've never seen any of these issues happen in NZ. I guess our trucks are just built different

At 7:58 you helped really good

LOVE IT!!!! "GEORGE DROPPED ANOTHER ONE ONE IN" ROFL!!! HE SHOVED IT ON 6:10!!!!!!!! BAAAA-HAHAHA!! LOVE HOW HE HELPS THE DRIVERS ESPECIALLY AT 8:00!! THANK YOU!!!!!

I feel like the driver got performance anxiety. 😂

Is it his first day or what? 😂

People never learn. At least 1-2 ft between your carts for automated pickup. Never ever near a mailbox. Ever.

Nice video. My garbage can is a 35 gallon cascade like some of the ones in the video, one of the wheels came off of it in the first few weeks we had it. WM came out and replaced the wheel a couple weeks later

good ole cranston RI, now i know why I always find my cans manhandled in the road!

Nice vids mate! I’m from the UK, but I love the design of the 35 cascade, although I can see here they’re not very compatible with these trucks XD 🤣

Very good video

Wow! Best fails. Truck driver of those, I feel bad that the people put the cans that close 😢.

I'm from Australia and in most waste collection situations we don't usually put our bins so close that they're touching each other. Some people put bins a bit too close together, but not so close as to be touching. I've seen garbage truck operators who have had to go forward a bin, empty that one in, and then back up to the previous bin that was supposed to be emptied, so they can then empty it. I try to put the bins at least a spread hand width apart, solves a lot of problems. Some older style clamping mechanisms have the straps swing wide which may hit the bins next to the one being picked up, although newer style clamping mechanisms have a slightly different swing path due to a better design that doesn't swing the straps so wide, so can more easily pick up bins close to one another. Worst case scenario I have seen is that the operator has to get out of the truck and manually rearrange the garbage bins before picking them up Other things garbage truck operators don't like include - but are not limited to: Overfull bins that have garbage bags fall off the bin they've been perched on, when they clamp onto them, and which are only staying on due to their weight and the negligible pressure of the thin bin lid. Bins that have excessively long or spindly objects sticking or hanging out of the bin. if it dangles excessively out of the front or side(s) of the bin, they may even sticker the bin instead of collecting it. Bins that are broken or are in need of replacement because part of the bin has broken and is in need of replacing, thus causing garbage to get stuck inside the interior of the bin because it is catching on a section of plastic that has broken and been pushed inside the bin by clamping forces when picked up. If the driver discovers damage, they may, at their sole discretion, replace the bin, or sticker it for the resident to get replaced. Some older bins are so badly damaged that they start to get brittle and fall apart, it's not fun seeing a bin get into the hopper, and usually, the driver just leaves it there and sometimes has to go back to the depot to get it removed.

The second two were epic good work with that flex arm fixing the knocked over cans

that is going hard to get away they have to slow down everything is going to break greetings from the netherlands

that was funny I laugh

I'm British and our bin truck work differently, one driver with another worker who exits the truck, manually pushes the bins to the double tipper at the rear. once in place the tipper empties the bins and then lowers them back down. the cab has a standard drivers hinge door (right offside) and the nearside (left) has a consortia door (like a bus) so the worker can easily and safely enter/exit when needed. Some UK bin trucks ( or lorries as we call them) have a side claw, much like the trucks in your country.

Garbage and recycle bins need to be 3 feet apart minimum for cleanest and quickest pickup . Most of my neighbors don’t read WM information .

I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. Thanks kid!

Good on you for standing up the bins he toppled. :)

The driver does have some really excellent skills, he got the arm to pick up those 2 bins that were knocked over, excellent job, I throw recycling for a superfantastic company here in Dartmouth Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦 and they are absolutely excellent to work for and I love when little kids watch us work it makes it more fun for us. We appreciate it. God Bless You All 🙏

these sideloaders are the greatest scrap

2:45 who puts a massive chunk of glass in there bin!?!

In Australia our truck are like 10x more aggressive with bins

This sounds like an Iveco Acco Raptor.

This kid is my kids hero.

No knock on the driver. He's really good. But if it were me, I'd be like "What can?"

Very nice vid dude thanks for making vids

8:17 is the funniest one yet

And we have a cult of people in our burg who are demanding we switch to roll carts. Most all of them provide as their primary reason for wanting to switch to roll carts is...... "we had roll carts back home where we lived before moving here.". To those folks I say.... "MOVE BACK HOME". LOL

I've been driving sideloader now but 11 years he knock a lot of bens over

Is it really better, faster or cheaper than the old way we do in Hungary? We have 2 workers on the back, who feeds the truck from the rear. There are no broken bins or missing tops, no mistakenly dropped in bins and they can get everything from the ground if fallen. It takes about no time as they don' t need to leave the cabin...

5:35 mark , those customers cans should have been tagged telling them to place cans farther apart . Come next week if they're the same, tag them and don't service. They will never learn if this isn't done.

Mate I don't watch U.S garbage trucks that often (cause l don't live in the U.S l live in Australia so l'm guessing you don't watch Australian garbage trucks that often to) but anyway back to what I was saying these fails were pretty funny and those trucks with the really fast arm (like the one u put a plastic bag on top of the claw/grab) are what l reckon are the most popular trucks to have a LOT!! of fails. Anyway happy new year mate.

Here in the netherlands we have trucks that pick up 2 bins at one time. And they don't destroy the bins because they are make of thick plastic.

8:18 Oh God! X'D

I like this channel!

Cool!

I love that I can literally think of any fail genre to search for and find a compilation video. This time I thought "garbage truck fail" and here I am.

Those bins look so cheap

I can only laugh so much, absolutely hilarious.

The poor blue bins they suffer much more

Nice.

The arm of the garbage truck dos not work

People need to space their bins apart LMAO

I love how the kid just follows the guy around

10:13 “ I try so hard and got so far”

Wen he grabbed the can I was like it's going to fall

8:19 I would just leave the mess there

It would help if people realized that they need to be placed 4 feet apart. Don’t blame the guy for leaving the mess there.

They almost put more trash on the ground than the truck

CRAZY

Amazing

Either the grippers have worn bushings or the hydraulic pressure is to low. Pressure should be at 1200 to 1500 psi.

Come on George

Front loaders vs side loaders?

It's funny because the whole thing ALMOST works

I help my trash and recycle guy pick up spilled stuff. My trash guy has the dumpster with arm on it. And the recycling has a side thing. Also I help throw stuff in. One time I got to see inside the truck I have pictures

like a surgeon's hand

Awesome Video! I like it !

Ik this comment is late but I just love watching garbage trucks fail, idk why I mean come on, its pretty funny 😂

When they were introducing new trucks to my neighborhood a few years ago a new truck came to my neighborhood and snapped my bin’s lid clean off

Those look way different and seem a lot worse than the waste management trucks where I live

Man the sidewinder is really not made for the mini cans

8:20 Lol

Really kid, you follow trucks around

Why he recording in the first place? And worker look like he having a bad day 😂😂😂

poor 35 gallon cascades

Lucky he got the bin out, and bins falling in is a reason why bins go missing

Thank you Charlie for showing me this masterpiece 😌

Our garbage men are probably the laziest on the planet! Driving down the road on trash day is like playing frogger, trying to avoid the cans littered all over the road because they just scatter them all over the place and just leave them there. Plus, I'm always guaranteed to find new garbage in my yard from someone else's can that they decided to leave me as a present. Not to mention all the lids they've ripped off of our cans or cans they've just taken off with. I remember when 2 men used to walk behind the truck and manually empty all the cans into the back, these guys have it easy, there's really no excuse!

You have a new subscriber.

Good thing garbage trucks have a seal preventing it from leaking back then when they leaked it was annoying

That driver was not having a good time 😂 it wasn’t his day 😂 but it really wasn’t his fault tbh. But man I was laughing so much especially with the can that exploded, I was like omg dude can this driver just get a break already 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

If i drop a bin In the packer, i just pack it in

People leaving bins to close together.

Looking at the video like this, I realize that this system is trash. How many garbage cans break or end up directly in the truck is enormous. The system should be reconsidered, other countries have done it better.
