Veolia FL
December 10, 2009 - 12:34 am
This was from one of my holidays at Nelson Bay, taken from the place I was staying at for the weekend. All I can say is that I had a of a good view from the balcony of the room I was in! We see a Veolia FL dumping 3 x 1.5m, 1 x 4.5m and 2 x 3m, which are used by the hotel I was at and the bowling club on the same premises. There would’ve been another 4 bins in this video, but it wasn’t the holiday season so not as busy. Please enjoy, please rate and please comment.
Body Make: Superior PAK
Model: 31m Pegasus
Chassis: Volvo FM9

December 10th, 2009 at 12:34 am
Yeah that’d be …
Yeah that’d be really neat! I’m excited to hear what it’d sound like, prolly won’t be long before they’re more common…
December 10th, 2009 at 12:34 am
LOL you thought we …
LOL you thought we wouldn’t notice that, just thought you’d leave that part in there, huh Mitch? he he
lol I actually didn’t catch that until he mentioned it

Well according to …
Well according to the text on the add, it is a compressed natural gas engine. Be cool to see one and hear the sound… wonder what the difference would be to the one now? Mmmm…
December 10th, 2009 at 12:34 am
Yeah, I think there …
Yeah, I think there are a few biodiesel and other weirdly fueled trucks around the country, seems like they’re sorta experimenting with different things. So is this Acco Compressed Natural Gas or just gas powered??
December 10th, 2009 at 12:34 am
Yeah, we have a few …
Yeah, we have a few of those (in the US at least), with the flatbed + ‘crane’ (mast with forks), WM seems to have some of those. For Esco. and EDCO in general, we have these neat Hino (mostly) trucks with trailers–see the EDCO Yard Visit video I posted!–that hold a lot of dumpsters, as well as the single dumpster type with forks on the back and a tiny chassis.

PERSONAL CORRECTION …
PERSONAL CORRECTION:
It just happens to be that I found an advertisement for Iveco which believe it or not, advertises their new gas-powered Acco! lol How’s that for a coincidence
Well there’s a new answer for you, “yes we do have CNG powered trucks” =]

… BioDiesel is …
… BioDiesel is the only sustainable fuel source I can think of in use here in Oz.
2) The dumpster delivery trucks I’ve seen during my life tend to be standard flatbeds with a crane mounted behind the cab. They seem to be capable of holding 4-8 dumpsters (depending on the size). I’ll try and get a video of one making a delivery, or driving by at the least.

Yep, this is part …
Thanks with the good luck, haven’t seen some of the trucks up close, at all or for ages… particularly keen on the MNL, New Transpacific and the Euro h/p.
Yep, this is part of the heart of that story from a bit ago
Very random questions indeed lol:
1) I haven’t seen any Aussie C/LNG trucks in person or through pictures that I can recall, I believe there has been talk about introducing the power source / trialling it….

So here’s that one …
So here’s that one video with the story behind it!! Loving the looks of that soon-to-come-in-the-way-of-FLs list, good luck on all those!! Gotta say I love the idle sound to this Volvo! LOL and there goes the Theiss one at 4:12! Two kinda random questions: 1) Is there any talk about making there be CNG or LNG trucks down there? (or have you ever seen any??)
2) What are the dumpster delivery trucks like, and do you have any pics of them? Thanks for the post, 5 *****’s!

Yer we had a bit of a mix over here too; they were also known as Collex and Onyx for a while, but then they changed the name over to Veolia a while ago.
