Robertson Sanitation: Mack MR McNeilus Rear Load Garbage Truck

Here is one of my personal favorite trucks I have filmed. I had one of these old 32 yard Robertson MR’s on my route around 10 years ago and my family used to have Robertson when I was a kid, so these are extremely nostalgic to me. These also are more interesting in my opinion because of them being 2002’s while most MR’s that have been running near me were almost exclusively 2007’s. I personally enjoy the sound of these older ones better, they sound almost more “mechanical” in a way. These were a staple of Robertsons fleet here in metro Atlanta, unfortunately there are only a handful left now. So I was extremely happy to film one before they are gone. As I always say, these old Mack MR McNeilus rear loaders have served, in this case, Republic Services very well and made them a lot of money. Durable, reliable, and effective, they are a favorite of many drivers, mechanics, and certainly industry enthusiasts like myself.


A huge thanks to the extremely awesome helper on the truck, Jay, who I met over social media and who helped me find his route. I hope you enjoy the vid :)


For those interested, here is the link to the vid of the truck that did my route over 10 years ago now

There is also appearance of it in part 1 and 3 as well. Those are some of my favorite videos on YouTube, I definitely recommend watching them. I’m incredibly grateful for Dejuan filming those.
