Popular DAF Waste Truck Models and Configurations

When browsing the listings of Daf waste trucks for sale you will encounter several generations of vehicles engineered for waste collection. DAF chassis are highly adaptable, meaning they can be fitted with a variety of refuse bodies, compactors, and bin lifters.

Some of the most popular models available in the UK market include:

DAF CF Series (e.g., CF340, CF 340 FAN, CF290): The CF range is the backbone of many UK waste fleets. The CF 340 and CF 290 models are highly valued for their durability and driver comfort. The "FAN" configuration (a 6x2 axle setup with a steered trailing rear axle) is particularly popular for municipal work, offering exceptional manoeuvrability in tight residential streets.
DAF XD Series (e.g., XD300, XD340): As the successor to the CF series, the newer generation DAF XD models feature enhanced cab safety, improved direct vision for urban environments, and highly efficient PACCAR engines. These trucks are ideal for operators looking to comply with the latest Direct Vision Standards (DVS) in London and other major UK cities.

Key Features of DAF Refuse Collection Vehicles

DAF waste disposal trucks are engineered with specific features that make them ideal for stop-start urban driving and heavy-duty refuse compaction. When comparing different vehicles, consider the following technical specifications:

Engine and Emissions: Most modern used DAF trucks feature Euro 6 compliant PACCAR engines, ensuring compliance with UK Clean Air Zones (CAZ) and London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ).
Manoeuvrability: Rear-steer axle configurations allow large 26-tonne triple-axle vehicles to navigate tight cul-de-sacs and urban estates with ease.
Compactor Bodies: DAF chassis are commonly paired with industry-leading waste bodies from manufacturers such as Dennis Eagle, Geesinknorba, Zoeller, and Heil.
Transmission: Automatic or automated gearboxes (such as Allison or ZF TraXon) are standard in waste trucks to reduce driver fatigue during frequent stopping and starting.
