apparently all of california’s garbage trucks have HUGE ROBOTIC ARMS on them to pick up the trashcans??? what???? the fuck??????????
Other places don’t have this??
NORMAL garbage trucks have a guy who just sort of hangs on to the back and jumps off whenever they pull up to a house so he can throw the garbage in
No. NORMAL garbage trucks in Finland have HUGE ROBOTIC ARMS too; only weird-ass poor-place garbage trucks have a guy.

itsbenedict said: same in north carolina but they’re terrible and half the time trash bins aren’t standardized so they have to have the hanging-on guy anyway for when the robo-arm fucks up
