Smarter Equipment, Smarter Service

Beginning July 1st, 2020, The City of Seat Pleasant will operate the new Loadmaster Legacy 3 to 20 Yard Loader. Our new Waste Management vehicle is powered by "3rd Eye." The 3rd Eye Cam will capture our drivers' actions, allowing us to provide safe, secure, and efficient service to residents while identifying and assessing possible risk factors. In addition, our new top-of-the-line operating system is equipped with safety features such as Sign Detection and a Smart Reporting Data System, which will ensure that our team will operate in compliance with state-mandated speed limits while collecting critical data so that we proactively and continuously improve our service.
