Baldwin Park -- Residential (WM)

Описание: Waste Management San Gabriel Pomona Valley's awesome drivers hard at work in the City of Baldwin Park. I've gotten to know many of these drivers extremely well so it's always fun seeing them. Here are 13 of the many trucks that I've caught over the last three years.

(0:00) - 263205: One of my favorite drivers to visit is Moises, who is a 34 year veteran of the company. He always moves quick, so seeing him in both FELs and ASLs is very entertaining. Earlier this year, Kevin and I caught Moises doing a heavy bulk route in one of the last Wittkes, 263205. This truck sounds amazing, especially with how hard Moi revs. We also got to see him use the arm on some bulk items which was entertaining! Today, Moi drives an ACX/Amrep FL for the bulk route so I'm glad I got this when I did.

(5:23) - 104407: Another long time WM veteran is Leonard Leanos here, who has won several awards within the company for his impressive safe driving record! His Driver of the Year Award is especially impressive. Awesome guy who always has some cool stories from over the years.

(5:47) - 103859: Here is Martin, who I've known for over 10 years when he became my recycle driver in 2009! I've been wanting to see Martin in his Peterbilt for years now, so when I ran into him one day a few months ago, I decided to grab some clips. He used to drive a Mack LE Amrep when he was doing my route, but he said his Peterbilt is a lot better.

(7:21) - 263452: Fernandez was one of the last drivers in the yard who had a Curotto Can, so I was lucky enough to catch him in it one afternoon right before he got an ASL back in 2017. Definitely miss seeing these old Wittkes doing residential routes so I'm glad I have some older footage stocked up.

(9:16) - 263235: Pimienta was the last driver who had a Curotto Can on resi. I got lucky and saw him in 263235 one afternoon back in 2018 and got a few clips. Unfortunately I never got to go back and get more before he retired! Love the old WMX carts as seen in one of the clips here!

(10:40) - 105338: Fili, my greens driver in Arcadia, collecting some old WMX carts on his recycle route.

(11:15) - 263453: Yet another great driver I love to see. Enrique is an incredibly hard working driver who is always super nice when I see him. I caught him on his last few stops earlier this year, and you'll see how big some of the set outs are! He runs these Macks super well, and is extremely quick so it's fun seeing him move through his massive route.

(15:31) - 106121: Fermin is one of the last drivers from Western Waste, so I always enjoy visiting him and hearing stories from back in the day. I really like how these new ACXs sound, and combined with the faster arm, is definitely one of my favorite ASLs in the yard.

(16:05) - 263266: I saw that 263266 had an old Moreno Valley Curotto Can on it, so I wanted to get a clip of that! Unfortunately they already swapped it with a newer bucket so I'm glad I caught this when I did.

(17:49) - 103708, 103857, 103695, and 105631: 3 drivers came to help on this route when Fernandez first got his ASL. It was definitely cool seeing so many trucks swarm the area!

Big thanks to all the awesome WM drivers here for their many years of hard work and dedication! All the drivers here each have well over 25 years of service, which is a huge accomplishment in my opinion.

Enjoy!
