Welcome to Thrash 'N' Trash Productions! Here you will find high quality videos of a wide variety of garbage and recycling trucks and other waste handling equipment from all over the western United States! For as long as I can remember, I have had a deep fascination with the waste industry. Some of my earliest memories are of watching out the window as the garbage truck rolled down my street, face pressed to the glass with anticipation, and waving with excitement as the big garbage devouring machine finally approached my house. Since 2008, I have dedicated this YouTube Channel to those very trucks, so that others who share this unique interest, both young and old, can share in this delight! I am always striving to improve, to deliver nothing but top quality videos! And of course, as a musician as well, I always try and tuck my passion for heavy metal in whenever I can, too! I hope you enjoy what I have to offer! Thanks for stopping by!

For this weekend's video, I'm proud to present this Heil DuraPack Python automated side loader paired up with a Peterbilt 320 cab and chassis! While this is one of the City of Walla Walla's older garbage trucks, its still running strong and getting the job done! Overall, it was a really fun truck to catch in action! More to come soon from my recent visit to Walla Walla, stay tuned! I hope you all enjoy the video!
A huge thank you to the driver of this truck for letting me grab some video! And thanks to all of you for watching!
Here is one of my favorite trucks I was able to see on my trip to California a few years back - an Amrep Octagonal Side Loader on a Volvo Xpeditor chassis, sporting the classic G.I. cab stripes! Not only does this truck look sharp, but it sounds great as well! The hard revving, the fast arm cycles, and smooth operation, all set in front of the beautiful scenery of Thousand Oaks made for some truly stunning footage in my opinion! A true SoCal classic all-around, definitely a truck I’m really happy to have gotten footage of! I hope you all enjoy the video!
As always, a big thank you to the driver of this truck! And thanks to all of you for watching!
For this week's video, I'm proud to present this fine looking truck - a Heil Half/Pack Sierra front load body, paired up with a Peterbilt 520 cab and chassis! This truck is outfitted with a Curotto-Can for automated residential collection, and the whole unit really pops out in its eye-catching turquoise paint job! I hope you all enjoy the video!
As always, a huge thanks goes out to the driver of this truck! And thanks to all of you for watching!
Back about 6 or 7 years ago, @westcoastrefusetrucks @northwestrefuse2151 and myself decided to check out the Sunday morning commercial routes in downtown Seattle to see what trucks we'd run across. We almost immediately came upon this gorgeous green machine - a CCC LET2 with a McNeilus Standard Rear Loader collecting commercial recycling from both carts and dumpsters! So kick back and enjoy this video, chock full of kick-bar and cart tipper action! I hope you all enjoy!
As always, a big thanks to the driver and to everyone else who made this video possible! Thanks for watching!
Here we have a pair of single-axle Peterbilt 320's with small Heil Rapid Rail bodies collecting a variety of nifty rare carts!
Back in 2022, @westcoastrefusetrucks @3amrepmike3 and myself found ourselves in the great state of North Dakota! Naturally, our first stop was the city of Dickinson to check out their array of rare carts, including a large quantity of Snyder's and Turn-Key's with the single "steam roller" wheel! And of course, we had to get some footage of these carts getting collected, and today I'm proud to share my footage! I hope you all enjoy my first video from North Dakota!
As always, I'd like to extend a huge thanks to the drivers of these two trucks, as well as everyone else that made this footage possible! And thanks to all of you for watching!
For my first video of the new year, here's one of the City of Richland's shiny new Labrie Automizer Right-Hand ASL paired up with a Peterbilt Model 520 cab and chassis packing out on some post-holiday recycling! The arm on this truck is crazy fast, and together with some revving and hard manual packing, makes for one entertaining video in my opinion! I hope you all enjoy watching this truck as much as I did!
As always, a huge thank you goes out to this hard working driver! And thanks to all of you for watching! More to come soon, stay tuned!
Side loaders, front loaders, and rear loaders - oh my! Here we have a little bit of everything, roughly 150 different trucks in action! Everything from curb sort recycle trucks, to container delivery trucks, and everything in between! This video serves as a sampling of everything I still have "sitting in the vaults" plus a few trucks that have been recently featured on my channel as well. Some of the trucks in this video date back to the '70s and '80s, and several were filmed brand new on their first day in service, so their truly is a wide variety of equipment featured here! Most of these trucks will have their own full-length video at some point or another, a few are exclusive one-offs that you'll only see here in this compilation! So buckle up and get ready for an hour-and-a-half of non-stop garbage truck action! Or if you don't want to take in the whole thing at once, I've broken it up into convenient 10-minute-long segments for easy viewing! An insane amount of time and effort went into filming all of these trucks, and this compilation alone took nearly two weeks to compile, arrange, and edit, so I really hope you all enjoy everything I have to offer here!
I'd like to extend the biggest of thanks to all of the drivers of the trucks in this video as well as the countless other people who helped make all of this possible!
Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed! Drop a comment below and let me know which of these trucks you'd like to see featured in my next upload!
For today's feature, we have a nice loud and rumbly older model Autocar Xpeditor WXR paired up with a second generation McNeilus AutoReach body! This classic combination really pops in Waste Connections' stunning royal blue and white paint scheme! This truck is seen here collecting from Vancouver, WA's unique turquoise-colored yard waste carts, making this video just that much cooler in my opinion! I hope you all enjoy the video!
As always, a big thanks goes out to the driver of the truck as well as everyone else who helped make this video possible! And of course, thanks to all of you for watching!
Sometimes luck is on your side and things just pan out, as was the case back in the summer of 2018 when @westcoastrefusetrucks @socalgarbagetrucks ran into this absolute monster of a truck! Seen here is a classic WhiteGMC Xpeditor WX paired up with the earliest version of the Heil Half/Pack Sierra body (often referred to as the Half/Pack Curve Shell due its similar appearance to the Heil Formula 7000 Curve Shell side loader of the same era). Done up in Sunshine Disposal's stunning yellow and blue livery, this truck is a real eye-catcher for sure! As luck would have it, we came into town on just the right day, as this truck was the spare front loader, and was an incredibly lucky catch! Aside from how awesome this truck looks, it's loud rumbly motor and fast-paced can-slamming action just really make this truck a real joy to watch! I hope you all have as much fun watching this truck as I did! This is without a doubt one of my top favorite front loaders I've ever gotten to film!
As always, a huge thank you goes out to the driver of this truck as well as everyone else who made this video possible! And thanks to all of you for watching!
Another one from deep in the vaults, here we have a Wittke SuperLight front loader paired up with a Mack LE chassis! This particular unit was paired up with a carry can and cart tipper, seen here handling some residential recycling on a stormy afternoon. These trucks were once a common sight in WM's California fleet and were already getting harder to come by nearly 8 years ago when this was filmed. I would have to imagine by now that these are all but non-existent, so I'm glad I got the opportunity to catch one in person before it was too late! I've always had a particular fondness for this particular spec - the clean lines of the Wittke SuperLight body pair up nicely with the simplicity of the Mack LE cab, the curbside body mounted exhaust has always been a favorite of mine, and paired up with a quick carry can really makes this a fun watch in my opinion! I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did!
As always, big thanks goes out to the driver and everyone else who helped make this video happen. And thanks to all of you for watching!
