5 stars - Eating your rubbish and loving every smelly second of it! - www.bettybookmark.co.uk

Ideal for fans of big machines, the book is crowded with 'noise', bold, chaotic text set against brightly coloured pages, and dark threatening illustrations of the hulking vehicles. Most striking is the enormous range of vocabulary, detailing parts of the vehicles and the amazing assortment of things that the vehicles dispose of ('wonky washing machines', 'burned out barbecues'...) - Nursery Education

For two-to-four year olds who can't get enough of this glad to be grubby exuberance. - Financial Times

Robust hardback about a big machine that is dirty and smelly but extremely useful and full of action and humour. - Books for Keeps

The illustrations by Jim McMullan are dark and dramatic, highlighting the solitary streets and the nightly routine of the rubbish lorry. - INIS
