The Pac-Mac RL Series Rear Loader Garbage Truck is designed for the collection of waste in particularly difficult-to-access and specialized areas. Not as large as the rest of the Pac-Mac family, the Mini-Rear Loader is more maneuverable and able to access areas that the larger equipment cannot. Smaller, yet powerful and as capable, the Mini-Rear Loader is frequently used on university campuses, parks and playgrounds. With 4×4 configuration, the Mini-Rear Loader is used at beaches or in snowy conditions where other trucks may have traction issues.

Because of its maneuverability and short load-time, the Pac-Mac RL Series Rear Loader Garbage Truck is frequently used as a back-up for missed stops that the bigger trucks could not access. And the Pac-Mac RL Series Rear Loaders are often preferred in higher revenue and upscale neighborhoods where massive waste collection equipment cannot reach. Due to the lower weight class, a CDL is not required for operation which allows for flexibility when an emergency pickup is required. The Pac-Mac RL Series Rear Loader is excellent for training new employees who may be in the process of obtaining their CDL licensing for larger equipment.

The Pac-Mac RL Series Rear Loader Garbage Truck can be an answer to your current accessibility challenges. Once you own one, you may wonder how you had operated without it. Economical and durable, this go- anywhere and do-anything vehicle will expand your company’s capability.
