New Way Front Loaders
New Way Cobra

The Cobra is New Way’s heavy-duty rear loader, engineered for operations that demand rugged strength and exceptional compaction. Built with a reinforced steel body that resists twisting and flexing under the stress of daily collection, the Cobra delivers high compaction ratios and fast cycle times to maximize route productivity.
New Way Diamondback

The Diamondback delivers full rear-loader performance in a compact footprint, purpose-built for tight residential routes and urban environments. Shorter overall length allows it to navigate alleys, cul-de-sacs, and dense neighborhoods with ease, while a hopper and packing mechanism ensure strong compaction and reliable performance.
New Way Viper

The Viper is one of the most popular mid-compaction rear loaders on the market, a lighter, faster version of the industry-leading Cobra built for residential and light-commercial routes where speed and maneuverability matter. Automatic tailgate locks and ejection panel round out a truck that fleet managers keep coming back to.
