ENGINEERED FOR SPEED. BUILT FOR STRENGTH. 
PROVEN TO LAST.

PROVEN POWER AND PERFORMANCE.

The DuraPack® Python® automated side load garbage truck combines two of Heil's most trusted designs in one high-performance package. The DuraPack body is legendary for toughness and productivity, while the Python arm delivers unmatched speed, smoothness and longevity. Together, they set the standard for efficiency and reliability in automated collection, helping fleets operate smarter and more profitably.

CONTINUOUS PRODUCTIVITY.

The DuraPack® body's follower panel allows continuous dumping during the pack cycle. so operators can collect the next cart without waiting. Twin packing cylinders achieve outstanding payloads, enabling more homes per rote and reducing trips to the disposal site. Every detail is designed to keep operators efficient, routes productive and sleets running at maximum performance day after day.

SPEED THAT PAYS FOR ITSELF.

With one of the fastest lift cycles in the industry, the DuraPack Python helps fleets finish routes faster and cut operating costs. Its eight-second lift cycle shaves four seconds per stop, adding up to an hour saved per day compared to competing models. The Auto Lift feature automated lifting of the cart into the dump position in one smooth motion with a single press of a button. Together, these feature deliver more productivity.

BUILT TOUGH FOR REAL WORLD CONDITIONS. 

A fully welded, interlaced subframe resists abrasion, corrosion and salt damage for exceptional longevity in demanding collection environments. The body is built with 7- and 8- gauge high tensile steel, while the hopper features a 1/4-inch AR400 floor and 3/16-inch AR400 sides for superior strength and durability. High-tensile steel withstands intense compaction forces to deliver maximum payloads with fewer trips. Reinforced tailgate prevents buckling and includes a 60-inch seal to keep liquids securely contained.

STRENGTH YOU CAN COUNT ON.

The Python arm lifts up to 800 pounds, with cushioned cylinders delivering smooth, controlled motion and protect both the arm and the chassis from wear. Precision geometry minimizes spillage and ensures carts are consistently returned with lids closed. DuraPack Python's optimized weight provides exceptional durability and higher payloads, dependable performance and the lowest total cost of collection.

COMMON BODY PARTS

Standardized parts simplifies operations. A shared body design with 44% more common components means fewer parts to stock, easier technician training and reduced downtime across both front and side load fleets.

INTEGRATED CAMERAS/LIGHTS

Integrated 3rd Eye cameras come built into the body for better protection, less maintenance, and clearer visibility, all with fewer failures, less downtime, and improved safety, performance and reliability in every environment.

SHUR-LOCK TAILGATE

Tailgate cylinders are now positioned in the tailgate bolster, away from payload, for cleaner operation. This design simplifies tag axle function and removes hydraulic components from the tag axle area. All tailgate commands are controlled through the touchscreen display, preventing accidental movement during transit.
