This Mercedes is a used garbage truck — also commonly referred to as a refuse collection vehicle — built in 2024 and designed for the collection and compaction of municipal solid waste. Mercedes is a globally recognised manufacturer of commercial vehicles, producing heavy-duty trucks that serve industries including logistics, construction, and waste management. The bodywork is supplied by Terberg RosRoca, a specialist in refuse collection superstructures, under the Olympus 23W designation, and the complete unit carries registration number KLEAN194, originally operated as a rental vehicle in Germany.
The rear-loading superstructure offers a 23 m³ cylindrical body, a design chosen specifically to maximise usable capacity. The loading floor is keel-shaped and includes a floor channel and a collection tray to contain spillage. Compaction cylinders are mounted externally to the rear loader, keeping them accessible and protecting them from internal loading damage. The loading system is semi-automatic and compatible with DIN, ETB, and comb (ETB-style four-wheel container) collection standards. DIN arms are foldable, and the Single-Man-Trade lifting function together with the Auto Gather function allow a single operator to capture and empty four-wheel containers via the comb mechanism. The system automatically raises the lifting equipment when the vehicle moves both forwards and backwards, reducing the need for manual intervention during kerbside rounds.
The chassis runs on three axles. The front axle is a steering axle with a maximum axle load of 7,500 kg. The first rear axle is the driven axle, rated to a maximum of 11,500 kg and equipped with a differential lock and single reduction; it is technically rated at 13 tonnes. The second rear axle is also a steering axle, rated to 7,500 kg. All axles are fitted with 315/80-22.5 tyres in twin configuration, and the rear suspension is pneumatic (air suspension). The powertrain meets Euro 6 emissions standards, and the engine displaces 10,677 cm³. The vehicle has three seating positions in the cab, an overall length of approximately 10 metres, an overall width of approximately 3 metres, and a height of approximately 3.6 metres. Payload capacity is stated at 10,480 kg, with a kerb weight of approximately 15,520 kg. The transmission type is automatic, and cruise control is fitted.
Cab and body equipment includes a rear-view camera with in-cab monitor dedicated to the superstructure, a 12-volt connection inside the cab, a roof hatch, an aluminium fuel tank, remote central locking, spotlights, warning lights, a sun visor, electric windows, a CD player, and automatic lubrication. A power take-off is also present. General, technical, and visual condition are all reported by the seller as very good.
