Yes, although then you have a lot more traffic to deal with. A typical garbage truck moves slowly down a city block, preventing a line of cars behind it from moving. Every change will upset some constituency, and their various needs need to be balanced. Life in the city!
- boringg 2y agoviraptor hasn't been to NYC apparently. No way are garbage trucks roaming at 6 am. What a cluster bomb that would be.
- viraptor 2y agoThe comment was less about the specific time and more about "see how other cities solve this". I get that it's a complex issue, but also many issues around it are self inflicted/imposed. Some Sydney councils for example rotate the routes often to avoid one place getting a 3am pickup constantly. (it's stretched until midday or so) And that's before getting to the part where the traffic itself is a problem and how is emergency response supposed to work in a place that can't handle a garbage truck.
