Since I am working overtime thru December-one of the things I found entertaining and interesting was new videos of trash truck compactor mechanisms in action is on the "Classic Refuse Trucks" website.Wow--this one is for those drivers that cut you off while you are driving your Schoreling-Leach 2R rear compactor trash truck-Compact their Car before their very eyes!!There is a demo video that shows the Schoreling 2R crushing a car-kinda like the Blendtec "Will it blend?"in this case-"will it crush"?That truck did a number on the car.Was interesting to see.Another video shows it crunching a large fuel tank.also they have videos of SD "RevoPaks" crunching various types of waste-including furniture and a fridge.There are some intersting videos of the Kuka "RotoPress" style trucks crushing various waste and a fridge with its rotary compactor.I didn't beleive these compactors were strong enough to process a car!Seeing the demo reel was beleiving!and Oh yes-on the Will it Blend website they show an IPod being blended-and Nuts and nutcrackers being blended.I can't get the site to link-Try looking them up on youtube or classicrefusetrucks.com.
 
How ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!

I like garbage trucks and I used to run out of the house saturday mornings just to watch them pick up the garbage, and if I was lucky enough, they'd start the compactor right in front of the house.

I wish I could watch videos but guess what? I'm stuck on retarded dialup. :-(
 
I seem to have a fascination for crushers and industrial shredders-The CRT site has some good videos of these in use.they transfered their videos to You tube.It makes them available for all to watch.when I was a kid-also used to run out and watch the trashmen pick up the garbage-and yes-would watch as they turned on the compactor.At the transfer site I go to presently-garbage pickup costs about $300-400 per year here-watch the neighbors trash get picked up-I got to a "transfer" dump site where they have a stationary Marathon compactor that you put the trash in and the dump attendent crushes it-At one gov't workplace had one of those Marathon compactors-YOU got to run it! was kinda fun after cleanup to compact the trash you put in it.
 
Awesome!

Thanks. I knew there was a site for buses.

There's a game coming out called "Bus Driver". It's as you guess, you drive different types of buses. It's from the same people that make the awesome 18 Wheels Of Steel series.
