Garbage Truck Truck FAQ
What is the difference between a rear-loader and front-loader garbage truck?
A rear-loader is loaded from the back — workers manually dump bins or it interfaces with an automated rear arm. It handles residential carts and commercial toters. A front-loader uses two large forks on the front of the truck to pick up commercial dumpsters (2–8 cubic yards) and empty them overhead into the hopper. Front-loaders are more efficient for commercial accounts with large bins.
What CDL is required to operate a garbage truck?
Most Class 7–8 refuse trucks (over 26,001 lbs GVWR) require a Class B CDL. Roll-off trucks pulling a trailer may require a Class A CDL. Check with your state's DMV for specific requirements, as air brake endorsements are also typically required on larger units.
