Wayne Engineering

Wayne Engineering, Cedar Falls, Iowa, offers the Arlock tipper system for rear loader collection vehicles. With the Arlock, rear loaders can latch onto commercial dumpsters, tip, dump and release the dumpster in a single motion. The unit's latching system locks onto both sides of a dumpster's trunions. While the latching arms pull up on the trunions, a kick bar pivots upward, which empties the dumpster. When the tailgate plate extends upward, it eliminates the gap between the tailgate and dumpster, preventing refuse from escaping. Available on the company's Phoenix rear loaders, the unit also can be retrofitted to other rear load vehicles.
