Emptying landfills only have 1 dump truck

[CapitalTwo]

Per title, is this intentional or is this a bug? I hope its a bug because 1% of the landfill's capacity per haul is just pathetic.

My hospital is always overloaded with trash but the recicling station right next to it dose not sent out a truck. Trash burning station behave as yours just a sigle truck each. You may have to put many landfils to have more than a single truck....

Landfill is supposed to have 20 trucks, and provided they aren't all in for service, they should all be out collecting garbage. If they are all out, and haven't reached your hospital yet, there are at least three solutions available immediately.
1. Add a garage to the Landfill - that'll give you another 10 trucks.
2. Build another Landfill - and that will give you 20 more trucks.
3. Considering the type of waste a hospital can produce, purchase a Landfill Hazardous Waste Collection Point and/or an Incineration Plant.
There are more, and you can learn a lot more about the game by using the game Wiki, at cs2.paradoxwiki.com. Look under Services.

sorry - substitute . for each - ", \ for each / and : for each ; and you should be able to find it. Otherwise use the Google search for Paradox Wiki, and scroll down to Cities Skylines 2.

They send out garbage trucks just fine for collecting garbage. The dump truck is how it empties, they're two seperate vehicles. I was asking if there was a way to get more dump trucks, or if I'm stuck with the one

Each facility uses 1 dump truck. So when you empty your landfill to incinerator and recycling center, you got 3 dump trucks on the job.

you can upgrade the incinerator center to use more dump trucks maybe the landfill is the same way. it's at the bottom ol the screen when you click on the building.

Garbage trucks yes, dump trucks no. These are 2 different vehicles for different uses.

Hm, where do you get a dump truck, as opposed to a garbage truck, from? I have both landfill (with extra garaging) and an incinerator (with extra garaging), and I show 30 garbage trucks at the landfill, and 75 garbage trucks at the incinerator plant, but no sight of a "dump truck" anywhere. I also have a recycling center and it doesn't show any vehicles at all!

Dump trucks operate between the facilities moving stuff around. For example if you set landfill to empty itself, you'll see it sending garbage out on a dump truck. You'll also see other 2 facilities to send out a dump truck to pick garbage for processing as the landfill wants to get rid of it.

So where do these "dump" trucks come from?

From these facilities. You got 25 garbage trucks or 24 garbage trucks and 1 dump truck. Dump truck only moves stuff between the facilities when needed. Set your landfill to empty and you'll see.

The low number of emptying trucks is almost surely a game balance thing but the good news is once the ability is provided this should be able to be adjusted. I notice this happening with some of these annoyingly low limits, like for the train yards.

Totally gaslighting you into thinking there's dump trucks in the game, of course there aren't any dump trucks coming from garbage buildings, that would be silly

Sorry - that's totally incorrect. Neither the facilities thenselves, nor the wiki, mention anything called "Dump Trucks".

I don't care what wiki says. I care about what I observed in the game. And with landfill, incinerator and recycling centre I observed 3 dump trucks transferring garbage from landfill to 2 other facilities. Owner for 1 truck was landfill, for another was incinerator and for third was the recycling centre.

Do this in game and you'll see.
