This Mercedes-Benz Econic 2630 is a used garbage truck — also known as a refuse collection vehicle — designed for the collection and compaction of municipal and commercial waste. Mercedes-Benz is a well-established manufacturer with a long-standing presence in the commercial vehicle sector, and the Econic range is widely recognised for its use in urban refuse and utility operations, where its low-entry cab configuration is particularly valued for frequent stop-start work.
This 2016 example is configured as a 26-tonne, 6x2 vehicle with rear-steer axle, giving it the manoeuvrability needed for tight urban routes while retaining the payload capacity suited to high-volume collection work. The rear-steer arrangement on a 6x2 chassis improves turning performance compared with a standard tag-axle configuration, which is a practical advantage on residential and inner-city rounds.
The body is a Faun Variopress unit, a well-regarded compaction body used extensively in European refuse operations. The Variopress system provides a split-cycle compaction mechanism designed to accommodate a range of waste types efficiently. Complementing this is a Terberg Split Lift, a bin-lifting system capable of handling split-compartment containers — making this vehicle suitable for the simultaneous collection of separate waste streams such as general waste and recycling in a single pass.
The vehicle is located in the United Kingdom and is offered in used condition.
