This Volvo 460 is a used garbage truck — also referred to as a refuse truck — from 2019, built to collect and transport municipal or industrial waste. Volvo is a well-established Swedish manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy commercial vehicles and trucks for haulage, construction, and waste management industries across the world.
The truck is powered by a Volvo D13K engine producing 460 hp, paired with an automatic gearbox for smooth operation across varied urban and suburban routes. It meets the Euro 6 emissions standard, making it compliant with the strictest European exhaust regulations currently in force, which is particularly relevant for operators working under low-emission zone restrictions or municipal contracts with environmental requirements.
The cab is well-equipped for daily operational comfort and driver efficiency. Fitted features include air conditioning, cruise control, electric windows, and electrically operated heated mirrors. A digital tachograph is installed to record driving time and speed in line with road transport regulations. Braking is handled by disc brakes with an EBS (Electronic Braking System), which provides enhanced braking control and improved safety, especially when operating at gross vehicle weight.
The chassis specification includes a differential lock for improved traction in low-grip or uneven conditions. A notable configuration detail is the steering arrangement: the first, second, and fourth axles are all steering axles. This multi-axle steering setup significantly improves manoeuvrability, reducing the turning circle and making the vehicle well-suited to navigating tight residential streets and confined collection points.
