    You should be able to pack a good load with that. Leaches are pretty good bodies. If you set up a tipper like the one in the video, you wouldn't even have to lift stuff into the truck, just toss it in a bin and dump it.

    Shoot If I could afford a trash truck, I wouldn't drive it around.. That would be parked on my land and loaded/compacted until full then hauled to the yard and unloaded.

    Unless you could fill it daily.
