This 2018 DAF LF260 is a used garbage truck — also commonly referred to as a refuse collection vehicle — designed for the collection and compaction of municipal solid waste. DAF is a well-established Dutch commercial vehicle manufacturer with a long history of producing trucks and distribution vehicles for logistics, municipal, and industrial applications. This example is based in the Netherlands and is offered in used condition, rated very good across general, technical, and visual assessments.
The truck is powered by a six-cylinder engine displacing 6,700 cc and producing 194 kW (264 hp), paired with an automatic transmission for ease of operation in the frequent stop-start conditions typical of refuse collection work. It meets Euro 6 emissions standards and is fitted with a power take-off (PTO) to drive the bodywork equipment. The cab is a day cab configuration with three seats, air conditioning, cruise control, and a radio/CD player. A reversing camera and anti-lock braking system are also fitted as standard safety features. Central lubrication is included, reducing maintenance demands during daily operation.
The bodywork is a Zoeller Mini XL-H, a well-known rear-loading compactor body with a 14,000-litre (14 m³) cargo capacity. The loading system is a Zoeller Gamma Split, compatible with comb, DIN, and Geesink bin-lifting standards, making it suitable for a wide range of container types. A Stop and Go function is fitted, allowing the vehicle to operate in pedestrian-paced collection mode without continuous driver input on the drive pedal.
The truck runs on a three-axle configuration. The front axle carries a maximum load of 6,000 kg and is suspended on leaf springs, with 285/70R19.5 tyres showing 80% tread on both sides. The first rear axle is also steered, with air suspension, a 6,000 kg maximum axle load, and the same tyre size at 50% tread. The second rear axle features double wheels, a differential lock, single reduction, and air suspension, with a maximum axle load of 10,500 kg and 50% tread across all positions. The overall wheelbase is 420 cm, and the vehicle measures 810 cm in length, 255 cm in width, and 320 cm in height. Empty weight is 11,840 kg, with a carrying capacity of 10,660 kg.
The truck has had a single owner and was previously used as a rental refuse vehicle. Its Dutch APK (roadworthiness) inspection is valid until October 2025.
