The Hsinchu City government has comprehensively upgraded the garbage truck service webpage and optimized the waste collection app to eliminate the inconvenience of waiting for or chasing after garbage trucks. The new version, officially launched on the 10th, makes garbage disposal a time-saving and effortless task. With four key design directions, including strengthening the transmission signal and algorithm logic of the vehicle device, adding reminders for upcoming stops, searching for related information from the perspective of collection points, and providing real-time location and information of recycling trucks, the upgrade highlights four major improvements: more accurate estimated times, more convenient reminder mechanisms, more intuitive search methods, and more diverse information display. This integration ensures that the dynamic information of garbage and recycling trucks is seamlessly woven into daily life, significantly saving time for waste disposal.
Mayor Kao Hung-An stated that the city government is committed to environmental sustainability, moving towards the goal of a low-carbon city. Smart governance plays a crucial role, especially in areas related to garbage collection, recycling, and people’s daily lives. The previous app version had issues with inaccurate arrival times and an inconvenient user interface. The current upgrade optimizes the interface for user queries and introduces GPS triggers for vehicle arrivals, allowing citizens to track the movements of garbage trucks precisely. These optimization measures aim to reduce inconvenience for citizens and provide a more convenient waste collection service.
The Environment Protection Administration explained that users can enter the homepage via a browser (https://7966.hccg.gov.tw), click on the relevant function block on the right side according to their needs, and download the iOS or Android update of the app based on their mobile operating system version. Everyone can contribute to energy conservation, carbon emission reduction, and improved environmental quality, practicing a green lifestyle for all. This initiative aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11 for sustainable cities, making Hsinchu City a livable, sustainable, and friendly “Smart Living City.”
