Garbage isn't being processed fast enough?

[Zimmerson]

As the name says:

I've got over 800 tonnes of garbage a month being processed. I gather 400 tonnes a month, and yet the garbage piles are either not being processed at all or not quick enough. My city is not doing well in terms of garbage, my main city centre has a garbage issue and no matter how many trucks I have, I can't get rid of the problem.

I've got:
9 Incinerator plants
4 Recycling plants with as many upgrades as I can fit
4 landfills that are upgraded - (I'll need even more the way this is going)

Anyone have any ideas?

Had the same problem, there is no solution.

Garbage is bugged broken. You don't even need any facilities and you won't get any penalties for it and it wont charge you. Also I think incinerators generate garbage.

[Zimmerson]

That's just great - It's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying seeing all the notifications of "Garbage piling" up in my city centres...

Psst. Just don't build a dump, or an incinerator ever.

Nothing happens. Nobody gets sick.
Garbage isn't real either.

"We swear, everything isn't fake" but every day people keep finding more 'fake systems'.
Sus.

Setup districts and restrict garbage to those districts, garbage CAN be imported otherwise I think. Also consider making another garbage processing area on the other side of the city, travel time and volume of trucks is important.

It could be your traffic. Doesn't matter how many plants you have if the trucks never get to the building and back.

Oh wait i see you have some on other other side of the city, man thats one big city lol.

And the city is only 3 years old. I'm sure that has some odd effects.

EDIT: Oh you can see the garbage trucks either importing or exporting garbage lol.

yeah your issue is likely a lack of districts.

Speaking of getting sick - ground pollution - does that ever even disappear?

I'll try giving some trucks some district designation and see if it helps

Remember the timescale of this game is very different.

Things happen MUCH MUCH slower than CS1.

And then ontop of that - once the trash has been cleared up ill probably delete my landfills and see if I can maintain the trash with districts.

Your garbage management says you are accumulating 400 tons a month of garbage and are processing 800 tons a month. It looks to me like you're processing it just fine, you just don't seem to have enough trucks picking up the garbage.

I only have one incinerator plant in my city with about 20k population and I literally have no complaints about garbage. Are you setting your garbage to your districts properly and are your districts placed properly?

you probably won't need to delete them, when it tried this things fixed themselves pretty quickly.

About to say - It's kinda taking the piss. I've deleted an old region where industry once resided. I want to move my residential there but it's just not viable. It's been gone for 2 years and it hasn't moved at all :(
