Sidewinder XTR Automated Side Loader

“After 10 minutes of testing the truck, we knew this was the truck for Rutherford. The quality and construction are top-notch."
Rutherford DPW - Rutherford, NJ

TRACTION IN ANY ENVIRONMENT

An Automated Side Loader with One-Operator Efficiency

Efficiency is always at your side with the New Way^® Sidewinder XTR^™ Automated Side Loader. With a fast compaction rate unrivaled by other side loader refuse trucks and the industry’s strongest frame-mounted arm — with an impressive reach of 12 feet — this truck is a powerful addition to your fleet. The Sidewinder combines the convenience of automated loading with the ability to maneuver in tight spaces to create an ultra-tough, overbuilt side-loading machine.

At the end of the day, the convenient features of the Sidewinder XTR are even more evident. Garbage truck operators appreciate the convenience of being able to easily clean out behind the RAM with the widest opening access and largest clean-out sump in the refuse industry. Add to that the standard rear-view camera and a two-year cylinder warranty, and you can see why the Sidewinder XTR has a solid grip on the competition.

Ease of Operation

Fully automated, the Sidewinder improves efficiency as a single-operator vehicle.

Flexing Its Muscle

The Sidewinder takes on any task with the strongest automated arm in the industry.

Easy Access

Cleaning out this automated truck is a breeze with extra large clean-out doors for ease of access.

XTR Premium Features

The Industry's Strongest Arm Design

The industry's proven most durable arm configuration— a frame-mounted arm with a gripper that's in line with the arm— has been reinforced by New Way^® engineers with heavier steel and hardware, giving you the strongest and most dependable side-loader arm ever built. It's built for the abuse of big routes and designed to keep you on the road, day in and day out.

Inline Lifting — 3inch Bore Lift Cylinder

Larger Outside Bearings — Thicker I-Beams

Tough on Trash. Easy On Operators.

The Sidewinder's™ ergonomic in-cab controls are specifically designed for operator comfort. Operator fatigue is decreased while productivity is boosted, putting true power at your fingertips.

All Trucks Need Maintenance (Ours Just Need Less.)

The Sidewinder™ is rated for a lifespan that keeps you operating with confidence far beyond competitors' models, with significantly lower maintenance costs and minimized downtime. When you do need maintenance, our design enables super-easy access for quicker, less expensive part replacement.

Easy Access for Maintenance — Nitro Carbonite Single Cylinder

More dependability.
Longer lifespan. Heavier payloads.

The New Way^® Sidewinder™ puts your fleet in a position of power. Built for punishment, your crew can keep on operating while other trucks are in the shop. So while this truck is tough, it makes one thing not so tough - the decision to add one to your fleet.

Hardox 450 Body & Tailgate Construction

New Way's advanced grade of high tech AR steel provides superior strength and less weight than traditional steel.

Heavy Duty Packer Panel

Sealed roller bearings and a simplified hydraulic system ensure minimum maintenance and ultimate performance.

Huge Compaction Rates

With the highest ram penetration in the industry, we pack away more and help increase efficiency. Available in 20, 22, 24, 29, and 31yd³ capacities.

Reinforced Frame-Mounted Arm

Boasting a 1000lb. capacity at its maximum reach of 12 feet, our arm unit has the highest lift capacity in the industry. Plus, it'll keep you moving with its 6-8 second cycle time.

Exalta Elite Paint

This paint line has been used by the U.S. Coast Guard for vehicles that regularly endure salt spray conditions. We bake on one of Exalta's toughest paints, providing a finish that's both attractive and highly durable.
