The deal expands distribution of McNeilus vehicles in the northeastern United States.

The Volterra ZFL, like the ZSL, is a fully-integrated waste collection truck, built from the ground up as an electric vehicle.

Ten-8 will offer sales, services, and support to McNeilus customers across four states in the southeast of the country: Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and Florida.

100 more Volterra ZSL vehicles will join Republic Services’ fleet, following the fulfilment of a 50-unit order placed a year ago.
