GFL Environmental's Kenworth Hooklift Truck

            Taken at the Emmet County Recycling Center in Harbor Springs, Michigan.  

I guess this is a roll back refuse truck of some sort, but I've never seen one quite like it.  The driver pulled up, dropped the container w/o tilting the truck bed and then went to the other end and loaded it back on using a big mechanical arm with a hook.  I couldn't figure out what he was up to, but hesitated to interrupt him to find out after I already had had a short chat with him before he dumped his load.  

A little research revealed that it is a hooklift truck.  Roll-Rite makes them as well as the tarp system on this truck.
