Attachment system for refuse vehicle
A refuse vehicle system includes refuse vehicle with a lift assembly and a carry can. The lift assembly includes a pair of lift arms, one or more first actuators configured to pivot the pair of lift arms, an attachment assembly coupled to ends of the pair of lift arms, and one or more second actuators. The carry can is coupled to the attachment assembly. The carry can includes a refuse container and an attachment interface coupled directly to a rear wall of the refuse container. The attachment interface includes a first mounting interface and a second mounting interface spaced from the first mounting interface. The first mounting interface and the second mounting interface are configured to engage with the attachment assembly to couple the carry can to the lift assembly with a fork-less attachment.
