“Republic Services has made an industry-leading commitment to fleet electrification, and we look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership with Oshkosh and McNeilus,” said Brett Rogers, Republic Services vice president, operations technology. “Our latest order of Volterra EVs will help us provide cleaner, quieter service to customers and help our municipal partners achieve their climate goals.”

Building on a longstanding partnership, Republic Services first ordered 50 Volterra ZSL electric refuse and recycling collection vehicles from Oshkosh in 2023. As the operator of one of the nation’s largest fleets of vocational trucks, Republic Services is a leader in fleet electrification with plans for electric vehicles to comprise half of its new truck purchases over the next five years. The McNeilus Volterra eRCV, the industry’s first fully integrated electric refuse and recycling collection vehicle, is designed to meet the rigorous demands of waste and recycling collection while managing carbon emissions and providing exceptional total cost of ownership.

“Republic Services has been a valued partner for many years, and we are thrilled to support their sustainability initiatives with our McNeilus® Volterra™ electric refuse and recycling collection vehicles,” said John Pfeifer, president and chief executive officer of Oshkosh Corporation. “This order is a testament to our shared vision of advancing environmental sustainability while delivering high-performance solutions for waste and recycling management.”

The 100 McNeilus Volterra electric vehicles will be deployed across multiple states, contributing to Republic Services' ambitious goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 35 percent by 2030. Each vehicle is equipped with advanced safety features, including 360-degree cameras, lane-departure sensors and automated braking systems, ensuring both driver and community safety. The Volterra eRCV can operate a full day’s route on a single charge, offering unparalleled reliability and efficiency in refuse and recycling collection.

“In addition to helping advance environmental goals, the Volterra eRCV was thoughtfully designed with drivers, service technicians and business owners in mind,” said Lee Dreas, vice president and general manager of McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing. “We’re proud to offer this innovative solution, which transforms the driver experience while delivering outstanding total cost of ownership advantages.”

The McNeilus Volterra electric refuse and recycling collection vehicles feature a purpose-built chassis and body, integrated as a single unit to maximize interior space and streamline operations. The vehicle’s zero emission certifications from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) help customers meet stringent environmental regulations and clean fleet goals.
