Heil Collectomatic Mark III/Formula 3000
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Ladies and gentlemen, for my 200th public video, I present you the greatest truck I have ever filmed - the ancient Heil Collectomatic! Jared, Mike, and I had to get up at 4:15 am after less than two hours of sleep to find this truck! They started route around 5:30 am, and were finshed around 8 am. Nice little country route. This truck mostly does driveway stops and out-of-the-way backroads. A bigger Heil Formula 4000 collects the more main areas. Enjoy!

Fantastic truck. Some trucks just have that extra bit of character. I like this design, it doesn't let you see much in hopper crushing action, but the unique design totally makes up for it.
Fab truck! It's great how the bottom of the bin comes up. It's like a giant mouth eating everything up. Love the shoot at the transfer station too. Great work, more of this truck please, get that camera closer in there as it crunches down.
Very Cool! I remember those trucks when I was a kid. I hope they restore it.
Damn guys great job! I still can't believe you guys found this thing and got to enjoy it! Such a great find. :-)
i remember these in brooklyn, ny back in the late 60s or early 70s great truck and packs great
I am in love with this packer! nice job!
Great to see this truck in action, to see it unload was even better!, well done!
Great video. I love this truck.
That truck is a classic! Good video. The city of Parma Ohio used to use these decades ago when they picked up their own trash. They've used republic waste(Bfi) since.
WOW! Very nice job! Very cool truck! AND you have it unloading!?!? Impressive.
A-1 Video! The body is a Heil 3000, probably built between 1975-1981
She's gotta be old as! No doubt a classic find, cool to think these were once used down here.
Great job. A very unique truck, plus you got it unloading too. Congrats on your 200th!
Ah nostalgia! I remember following a truck like this back when I was six. (I'm 38 now.) Glad to know there's at least one video I can reminisce with.
That's really freakin cool
Wow what a GREAT Video you got the whole thing all the way to the transfer station.And don't get me started on that truck love it wow thats got to be from the early to mid 80s model we had one back then here in blytheville ...Thanks man !!!!
Wow, nice old truck! Cool carts, too. Definitely looks like back roads lol. Awesome job!
I remember this sort of truck as a kid in the 1970s. I wonder if it could handle a couch or something that wouldn't fit fully into the hopper. This truck had to be super rare to see on the road 10 years ago and I'm wondering if any are still in operation today.
woah that is a cool packer!!!
Conshohocken, Pennsylvania had one like this till 1989
nice video
Nice Ameri Kan! We Veolia has those everywere in eau claire as former bfi bins and superior and onyx bins, we also have some cool 35 gallon ones
Dude, AWESOME vid man! What was the company and how old do you think this truck is? Anyway, this vid is Liked
Congrats on 200!!! Awesome find for it! Terriffic work as always!!! Man I know the kick bar tipper can be pulled off on some trucks- but on that it looks about as sketchy as the hotel with the carts rocking everywhere haha.I could't understand what was said at 3:57 but it seemed thourghout the video the driver didn't want to be filmed. what was the helper's attitude toward the video? and did he have any appriciation for the rare truck he was on (although running it might suck ) Keep em comming!
That lift looks interesting! Awesome video 5 stars
Got a request for someone: find an E-Z Pack Hydro side loader in action somewhere...that was another vintage garbage truck I saw, a couple of times, as a kid. When it compacted, that three-stage cylinder was huge!
VERY NICE Don't let this truck end up in the junk yard. must be the only one still in use in the USA restore it or repaint it its very special.

The Mark II with license plate 2 1086 still in service believe it or not in Wyoming. The Mark II is the same hinged hopper with the flat packer panel.

Whats name of the company that runs this truck
Lot of energy wastage here…the hopper is nowhere near full when he cycles the blade.
Man we stopped double siding like these guys a long time ago, even on the country routes.
