Pak-Mor in the 1970's and 1980's Milwaukee, Wisconsin was one city using 'mobile' transfer stations, in the form of this Pak-Mor compaction trailer being loaded by a Dempster GRD (1975). The rectangular trailers were discontinued in 1991. Pak-Mor also provided equipment for fixed transfer station facilities. Pictured are some RL-15 series rear loaders discharging into a Pak-Mor push-pit compactor unit Down below, a rectangular compaction trailer hauls out a load, and disgorges a 'cube' at the dump site Use of Pak-Mor Lo-Boye trailers allowed for lower discharge clearances, such as in this mid 70's installation for handling shredded paper at Odessa, Texas. A special round receiver and loading ram were designed specifically to couple with the Lo-Boye units Pak-Mor Handi-Lift container hoists for the H-series side loaders were phased out in favor of the all-hydraulic Link Retriever system. This 1981 version has been outfitted for 90/300 gallon residential automated collection thanks to clamp arms, a front pump and right-hand drive. A long-reach, dedicated ASL version (HR200 Retriever) would be available by the mid 80's H-series also received new one-piece tailgates, hydraulically raised, as shown on this manual side loader used by an east coast U.S. Navy base With a bubble tailgate, this 1988 model HLRL Container Retriever holds 33 cubic yards. Normal operation is automatic from the cab, however manual loading is also possible through side door opposite lift Detail of the Link Retriever system showing the container guide rails. The lift could be installed on either side of the body 4/5/09 © 2009 Eric Voytko All Rights Reserved Photos from factory brochures/advertisements except as noted Logos shown are the trademarks of respective manufacturers
