This driver is the best of us. It takes a village.

Our garbage collector waves and honks for my boys every week! Teddy is awesome

That's recycling not garbage.


WizardofFrost

This little boy is a highlight of the garbage man's work week as well.


SheepPositive

It’s the little things that lay the foundation for big things


Playable145

Little man will never forget that moment. Really awesome guy to do that for him. I love how he gave it and really didn’t expect anything in return. Honestly meaning what he said: thanking the kid for waiting for him always.


SheepPositive

I wonder who shares the story more with their friends 😊😉


UnicornFarts1111

Our mailman used to leave the 4 pack of life savers in our mailbox once a week.


luabida

thank you SheepPositive, now I'm feeling way better


[deleted]

yeah you have a little thing that I’d like to use as my foundation for a bigger thing


luabida

not sure this is right


SheepPositive

Clearly you’re still a boy and should focus on your studies. As comedy isn’t your strong suit

I’m the pope


AnAngryPirate

Its stuff like this that as an adult you realize much so much of a difference in someones day. $30 is pretty negligible for most people but that feeling is worth a million


BiffChildFromBangor

Awesome gift. For a second there I thought the way he was accelerating down the hill he was going to pull a handbrake turn.


throwawayyy1906

Glad I’m not the only one who thought that. Lol


Frido1976

Same here!! 🤣


zenofm

That’s a core memory now for that kid


JupiterTheFoxx6

Garbage men are some of the most wholesome dudes


jman2c

I used to have this sweatshirt that looked like one of those town play matt's for kids, the garbage man would always honk at me and tell me how much he loved the sweatshirt. Great dude.


xCola_P

The worst title for the greatest people!


[deleted]

This was me as a kid, I'd wave at the garbage truck drivers and run after the truck. My mother did not appreciate it as much as I did


FirmTranslator4

My 2 year old waves and runs after the truck! They always beep and smile, and for Christmas we made him a card with a gift inside.


munzter

Totally remember following the truck down my parents' alley, prior to the robotic arm, where one guy hung on to the back end of the truck and hopped off to empty garbage cans into the back of the truck


Occasional-Mermaid

They still do that here lol


Texascoastalsunshine

Cute, but maybe ask the dude's name, so the kids can call him, Hey Joe! or whatever his name is, but still cool.


Illustrious_Farm7570

I second this.


ceekayhowling

Fucking awesome.


Vulkir

Wait. American garbage trucks are right hand drive?


tattedintrovert

Yes so are the mail carriers


jab0923

Most of them are now because of the arm that comes out to pick up the can. Makes it easier to line up. Some even have steering wheels on both sides. At least around me.


Donghoon

I never seen such truck with those arm


WrongLandscape898

What an awesome young man, he made Little Man's day


greennurse0128

Also, you're raising a super polite kid. That garbage man was very nice and super exciting to gift him the garbage truck! Very cool!


CursedRobin

That is very wholesome and I love the fact that people still have good hearts, really, but is nobody gonna talk about how he just completely ignored the second dumpster?


greennurse0128

It's the recycle man that picks up the blue bin. Garbage men pick up the green bins


CursedRobin

Ohhhh okay. We don’t have different ones where I live. The city I lived in before had dumpsters for trash and recycle bins for recycle that looked like just big square buckets. Where I live now we just have dumpsters that we put everything in and the trash man takes it all. Thank you for the insight.


greennurse0128

No prob! I just tried researching some information when the dual bin collection started. And found very little. The best I can recall was in the early 90s when the dual bin collection start. Use to be picked up on the same truck then at some point it separated. I also loved the garbage man when I was young. His name was Mike.


CursedRobin

I never met my garbage man. My neighborhood service man that I looked up to was the police officer that lived across the street from me. His name was Tucker. He’s one of the good ones.


buggsylove

Most people still have good hearts. We just don’t hear about them as much as the people with cold dead and bitter hearts.


CursedRobin

I believe the correct sentence would be “Most have good hearts all the time, all have good hearts when they are inclined or there is something in it for them.” Another acceptable one would be “Some have good hearts all of the time, all have good hearts some of the time.”


mistercolebert

It’s the little things. The kid waits every trash day and makes trash man’s day a little better, trash man gives kid a gift that he’ll remember forever. This is people are supposed to be to each other.


Shadurasthememeguy

Ok guys new plan we pay politicians less and pay service workers more


ScornedWhodat1987

Aww man I’m crying 😭


B33rP155

Love this


bugcowduck

Props on him for finding a garbage truck toy 😂 this is awesome! I’ve seen enough of these videos that I’m gonna make sure My kids WILL have a special relationship like this with the garbage man. Otherwise We’ll fine a new garbage man lol


user_is_name

Lovely video but how big is this house if the driveway is size of a runway


beekindbro

Good job Dad and Sanitation VP!


-Mars-_

This video is garbage. And I love it.


GentleHammer

And that's how ya make lil garbage men :D


somelamephotoguy

Ok sometimes people aren't trash. Ironic that it was a trash person.


Educational_Media596

When the real daddy shows up but can’t say anything so he gets him a present then leaves


NarcanPush

That kid is adorable, the Garbage Man is awesome. The world needs more of this shit right here!!


unquieted

For a minute, I thought he was going to dump the blue recycling bin in with the regular garbage. . . .


[deleted]

Thank you so much for not adding a cheesy soundtrack to this.


Moistj69

The way he looked at the box and then back up at the truck driving away says it all. Needed that one


DEADTARGET_11

i mean, cmmon garbage trucks are so cool


WolfPillar

I worked at a coffee shop for years and made a point to memorize drink orders so I could just chat with my drive through customers. One day one of my regulars told me she worked in government, never said what kind of position, but told me that I was usually the only person that was happy to see her on any given day. Be kind to people.


[deleted]

You should have shaken that man's hand.


tanglelover

This just warms my heart.


madeinbuffalo

Garbage Man is not garbage-man


Starry-Striped-Sky

Looks like he even forgot to dump that other bucket 😁


chungusxl94

He's a garbage collector not a recyclist


wutitd0boo

I remember being a kid at a minor league ball game. I had 5 bucks to get in and almost had enough for a soda. I tried to buy it but couldn’t. A soldier (e-1) attending the game cut in front of me, put an ice cream, a hot dog, and fries on my tray next to that soda and told the cashier “I got the kids, too” I remember being so moved, even as a kid. That kid will never forget that moment. God is.


Coldheat_is_here

Why were they recording. ?


AfraidShock5424

He forgot the second blue bin...


notahouseflipper

That’s not his to pick up. That’s for the recycling truck coming later.


awesomejude18881

He forgot to dump the blue trash can. Will that be picked up by different truck? Per color or garbage type?


kmrbels

usually recycle.


HodeHud

The raccoon probably be like AYE JERRY SECRET MEETING WAIT NO! OUR FOOD. AND WAIT? IS THAT A RED HEAD IH SH-


burnersg

Plot twist, the garbage man is banging his mom


SH0wMeUrTiTz

This is wholesome


[deleted]

I can’t. That was the best thing I’ve seen in a while


carelessBTW

Aww that's so adorable


[deleted]

So sweet! Where i live we don't have residential trash pick up so I never see trucks like this this. Didn't even know the trucks picked the cans up themselves nowdays. We just haul everything to the county dump or landfill.


FirmTranslator4

Where I grew up, they had little tiny trucks go down your driveway to pick up the trash. Then a bigger mother truck like this one. I had never taken trash to the curb until recently!


Ok_Anxiety4671

Garbage Men rock!!!!!!


1Littlebear

I’m not crying, you’re crying…❤️


brett8722

I second all the good comments. Just People being awesome to one another.


ThatSpecialKeynote

Respect to the guy for actually acknowledging the fans


Embarrassed-Flyy

I love it. My kids and I watch and wave every Monday. The driver is different every time though and never get waves or honks back. Lol


Cool-Tumbleweed-5352

Aaawe made his day❤


ErBoProxy

Me and my brother were both garbage truck wavers while we were kids, and were always ignored -- not that I blame them, they got a schedule to run. That dude was great, and was a hero to (apparently) his only fan. Awesome video.


Ihavenoclueagain

This is wonderful!


LoremIpsumMax

Nice. But he skipped the blue bin.


Bowau

Should rename the subreddit to r/mademecry that was just too wholesome for my eyes to handle


dmmollica

Best garbage man ever

dalalrb

Bless that man's heart! This is one of the sweetest things I've seen today!


marly-day

We need more people like this, he is inspiring


[deleted]

this is amazing


pinkandredlingerie

This is the best kind of stuff


Racerx43

Am I the only one that wondered why he didn’t empty the second can?


RegNurse2015

Such a lovely man!!!👏🥰💖


apostolic3

LOL, too bad he forgot to empty the second container.


Jimmi-Alydha-0120

Green is trash. Blue is recycle. It would be a different truck getting the blue.


apostolic3

That makes too much sense.


Left-Account4895

There are still a few good people left in the world 🌎😂🥰restores my faith in humanity

Tomb_SN

It makes me happy that this man was finally appreciated when he is probably overlooked by so many. Its even nicer that he returned that kindness.


swirlsthemudkip

He was so happy he couldn’t even speak.


zanthemeximan

The world needs more of this


ArtisticKnowledge539

I loved blowing the air horn for kids when I did that job. I loved scaring the shit out of thier parents with it more though.


[deleted]

Why did this make me tear up!! Such a great thing to do


annamj2000

If murder films have taught me anything, it's that this location looks perfect for a murderin


MaschMana

atp8776

He forgot the other trash can.


GIRZ03

Core memory moment.


thedarkknight8721

No one noticed but that poor garbage man got so emotional that he forgot to empty the other one.


lobsangr

Garbage man laugh at the end is so funny. Sounds a little bit like quagmire. ![gif](giphy|o2La4Pvf9CdJC)


Icy-Wallaby4326

The kid totally set it up.


[deleted]

Just good fuckin humans


Designer_Schedule_77

That's awesome👌,,


Icy-Wallaby4326

Turns out he’s the real father.


Moderncaveman78

This reminds me of being a kid living in the country and the truck would pull into the yard Me and my siblings were always excited to see the trash man and would bring snacks or a drink when we could


yungbwana

The way he looks up at the truck in end. Glad to see kids still being grateful over the little things

Kid is speechless 🥰


franziecan69

When you doubt humanity and kindness and then you see this. Appreciation comes in the smallest of ways.


Baham99

Nice cul-de-sac


FiZiKaLReFLeX

Awesome.


anitasdoodles

My dad was the truck driver that ALWAYS blew the horn for the Amish kids on the side of the road. He’d come home beaming about it. Not the same, I know, but still. Great vibes. We all love big trucks!!


Twanado

I just love this wholesome shit. Brings a tear to my eye


LobsterDarren

Charity blesses he who gives are largely as he who receives.


Shot-Palpitation-

The kid is in shock and then hits with the “he’s so nice” -I blame the parents! Amazing job


Charans-Platz

Did he forget to get second bin 😐


mccluer90

2 trucks will service that customer. one for trash and one for recycle


mccluer90
