Always Up means we work intimately with our customers so that every single one of our trucks is purpose-built to fit the specific needs of their business and stay in service.

We know the truck.
Today, we want to know the people behind it.

The drivers. The operators. The technicians. The fleet teams.

The best way to build a better truck is to listen to the people who put it to work.

So tell us what you drive.
Where you run.
Toughest part of the day.
And what keeps you coming back.

Drop it in the comments.

Their team does the work that keeps a community moving. Day after day. Route after route.

And they trust Autocar to help carry that weight.

“The City has had great success with the Autocar chassis. Very reliable and plenty of room inside for bigger guys within the cab. Both tech support and sales staff are very responsive to our needs and genuinely take care of their customers.”
— Jerry Gunn, Fort Walton

Built here. Built tough. Built for work.

Every Autocar truck is built right here in the USA at one of our two plants: Birmingham, Alabama or Hagerstown, Indiana.

From the people on the line to the drivers behind the wheel, there’s a lot of American pride built into every truck we make.

Show of hands, who’s been to one of our plants? 🙋‍♂️
And who wants to visit?

Nashville runs on work most people never see.

Nine new Autocar ACX automated side loaders are joining the Nashville Department of Waste Services fleet.

Built for tight streets. Long routes. And the crews who keep Music City moving before most of the city wakes up.

Proud to stand with Nashville.

Proud to stand with the people who do the work.

Thank you to Municipal Equipment Inc. for the service and support that keep these trucks mission-ready.

Safety is not a side conversation.

Not in refuse.
Not on tight streets.
Not around crews, pedestrians, traffic, and neighborhoods that count on the work getting done right.

The route does not slow down.
The risks do not disappear.
So the truck has to get smarter.

This Waste Today article breaks down seven things to know about refuse safety systems, including how technology like Autocar’s ADAM™ helps push the industry forward.

Because safer routes are not built by chance.

They are built by people who refuse to settle.
