Garbage is generated by some rooms such as Condos, Apartments, Restaurants, and Housekeeping. It must be properly disposed of in order to keep residents happy and business operations running. Residents and workers will try to dispose of garbage by transferring it to a nearby Garbage Room, Garbage Dock, or Garbage Chute Room. Place a facility nearby or give them a direct route to a garbage facility to reduce their commute times.

Garbage can only be disposed of through a Loading dock or a Garbage Dock when they are serviced by the city's garbage trucks each morning. Any garbage stored in a Garbage Room will need to be periodically emptied by either loading dock workers or housekeeping.

You may use a Garbage Chute with a Garbage Chute Room to use gravity to transfer garbage to lower floors.

Garbage disposal

The two rooms that can dispose of garbage are:

  • Garbage dock - A high-capacity location for holding and disposing garbage. Housekeeping will transfer garbage from garbage rooms to garbage docks. Alternatively, use garbage chutes to deliver garbage to a garbage dock. Garbage docks must be connected via Car Access in order to function.
  • Loading dock - A low-capacity location for shipping out garbage and receiving goods. Loading dock workers will retrieve garbage from garbage rooms. Loading docks must be placed on the ground floor to function.

Garbage chutes

A Garbage Chute is a resizable vertical shaft that can transfer garbage to a garbage facility directly below it. People deposit garbage in a separate Garbage Chute Room placed immediately to its left. Immediately below the shaft, there must be a garbage facility that has available garbage capacity in order to receive garbage. If the room or facility under the shaft is full, garbage chute rooms will begin to backfill.

When constructing a garbage chute, place one tile of the chute and then resize either the top or bottom of the shaft by dragging it up or down. Garbage chutes cannot intersect other rooms, so additional planning is required.
