The crash happened in the northbound lanes at Whittier Street in the Hunts Point section just after 1 a.m., shutting down part of the highway until just before 7 a.m.
After the truck was uprighted and towed from the scene, sanitation crews worked for hours to clear the road.
A dump truck could be seen scooping up exploded cans spraying beer into the air and dropping them into the back of another truck.
