Driver comfort and safety come standard.
Our spacious cab puts the driver first by providing nearly 38% more space compared to the industry average. Combined with a flexible-designed interior, low 15″ step, direct visibility, active safety systems and streamlined controls, it’s an optimal workspace for drivers.
Low 15" step height
With a step height that’s 2″ lower than industry standard, drivers can easily board and exit from the street or curbside. This can make a hard day’s work a little easier and contribute to reduced risk of injury on the job.
Direct visibility
Direct visibility helps drivers see obstacles and can help minimize potential incidents along the way.
More interior room
The fully integrated design of the cab puts the driver first with 38% more space compared to a traditional cab. This promotes driver alertness, boosts comfort and makes it easy to operate.
Elevated driver workspace
Drivers come in many shapes and sizes. That’s why our design and placement of the pedals, tilt and telescoping steering wheel, along with integrated controls and temperature-controlled seating.

Our vehicle features the proven McNeilus Zero Radius™ vertical lift arm and a tight turning radius. Common components and intuitive, consistent placement of modules can help improve productivity and serviceability.
McNeilus Zero Radius™ vertical lift arm
The purpose-built vehicle features a 6-foot standard reach arm for dense city routes or a 12-foot reach arm for easy collection near parked cars. Proven, reliable performance for more than a decade for less maintenance and improved TCO.
Tight turning radius
From 57 to 67 feet, depending on configuration, the McNeilus Volterra ZSL lets drivers collect refuse without leaving the cab. It also helps maneuver around cul-de-sacs and tight corners with ease.
Serviceability
Real-time data and vehicle monitoring offers an optimized driver experience with tire pressure monitoring, automated daily checks, cloud-based telematics and DVR capabilities.
