We know trash collection is tough - and your competition is only getting tougher. Fight back by looking forward to the future of automated collection - the Curotto-Can equipped Automated Front Loader. The AFL is the most versatile, most productive and highest capacity collection truck available. It can handle it all - residential, commercial, automated and "take-all". If automation is part of your business, don’t miss the opportu-nity to compare the safety and productivity advantages of a Curotto-Can equipped AFL against old technology automated side loaders. The future of automated collection is here and you’re looking at it.

ADD FLEXIBILITY

Use as Commercial Front Loader

YES NO True dual use unit. Highest performance automated AND commercial collection.

Interchangeable Attachment

YES NO Don't park a truck due to arm issues. Quickly switch out the Curotto-Can and you are up and running.

Single platform for Residential and Commercial

YES NO One truck handles both methods with no compromises - maximize truck utilization.

LOWER MAINTENANCE

COSTS

Low Maintenance Costs

YES NO Simple design and few moving parts mean higher reliability and lower maintenance costs.

Low Cost Arm Replacement

YES NO Don't spend over $25,000 on an arm rebuild. Do it for far less with the AFL.

OPERATESAFER

Forward Facing YES NO Never again “rubber neck” to load a cart. Forward facing collection is more productive and reduces the chance for accidents. Workmans compensa-tion is reduced due to the elimination of neck and back repetitive motion.

Easy Loading of Bulky Items

YES NO The smallest work circle and a low loading height of 45” means appliances and furniture are safely and easily loaded.

REDUCE CART DAMAGE AND

LOSS

Best Cart Engagement

YES NO Tested to over 30,000 cycles with no cart damage. How much would you save eliminating cart damage?

Safely Retrieve Containers

YES NO Never pack a cart again or get inside the hopper- simply remove the cart from the low height Curotto-Can.

BE MORE PRODUCTIVE

Highest Productivity YES NO Five second pickup-dump-return cycle time blows the competition away.

Best Cul-de-sac Performance

YES NO With the arm forward of the steer axle, easily load carts from the sidewalk.

Boom Action Arm YES NO The arm isn't stuck between the axles as with ASLs. The forward arm delivers maximum maneuverabil-ity around parked cars and mailboxes.

Largest Hopper - Largest Body

YES NO 12 cu. yd. hopper + 28 cu. yd. body means no waiting for the hopper to clear and the best payload. Fewer trucks and man hours required for the same work.

Best Gripper Design YES NO Sleek design allows operator to easily slip between tightly placed cans without getting out of the truck.

AFL ASL

LOWER COSTOF

CONTAMINATION

See Contamination YES NO The only system that allows the operator to see and deal with contamination at the source. Send the temp worker sorting your contamination home.
