Volvo WXLL • Amrep Octagonal MSL Garbage Truck

Here we have a Davis classic! As we all know, Recology bought out Davis Waste Removal, along with acquiring the DWR trucks. One of those trucks being this Volvo WXLL Amrep Octo MSL. This truck was the first I found the first time I went to Davis. Aengus, Colby, nd I thought about meeting up to film this truck. As Colby and Aengus were looking in one part of the route while I looked in the other. Sure enough I found this truck in a cul de sac. Thanks to the super friendly driver for letting the three of us film this. This truck looks really well for it's age and sounds decent on take offs. My only complaint would be that another company doesn't have it. If you know me well, you know I don't like when a truck is all white. While the two Recology stripes look good, I do wish there was more to it. Nonetheless though this was a great truck to film! Make sure to like, comment and subscribe!

Sorry if the footage is hazy, this was during the 2020 NorCal fires.

What a awesome truck. One of my absolute favorite combos. Brings me back to the days of Albuquerque’s WXLL Amreps. Glad they are keeping the old Davis trucks around. They still got plenty of good years left in them.

Awesome! Cool to see some good old cardboard packing - same truck from your hopper video? Driver seemed pretty efficient - again cool to watch this unique operation.

Nice work! I’m surprised Recology hasn’t changed Davis’ system into the typical “one truck” system. This truck looks really nice with fresh paint, hopefully that means it’ll stick around awhile longer.

This kind of garbage collection is in the deepest stone age. Here in Europe, no driver has to get out of the car and pick up the garbage from the floor. Poor driver!
