Front-Loading Trash Truck AASHTO Vehicle Type?

Front-Loading Trash Truck AASHTO Vehicle Type?

Front-Loading Trash Truck AASHTO Vehicle Type?

(OP)
I'm putting together a layout for a site that is, for lack of a better word, cramped. I need to provide (front loading) trash truck access to an enclosure.

Currently, there is a dispute in regards to the type of AASHTO vehicle to be used for turn-modeling within my office. The municipality and its officers offer no suggestions.

So experts, what say you?

RE: Front-Loading Trash Truck AASHTO Vehicle Type?

Either

A) Use the vehicle that most closely matches the garbage truck, even if it's a bus, or

B) Contact the manufacturer of the truck and ask them for turning circle, etc.
