Full explanation

Garbage Collection

The Garbage Collection is a repeatable activity in Main City. Start it at Garbage job marker; the in-game marker supplies any temporary vehicle, tool, or object needed for the shift. The core objective is to drive the garbage truck to marked bags, load them, and finish the route. Prioritize the marked tasks rather than carrying extra props, because physics collisions and dropped objects are the most common cause of lost time. In co-op, assign one player to drive or operate machinery while the others handle loading and placement. A completed run is confirmed by the payout and the job-complete message. The current Steam achievement list links this activity to “Cleaning Up The Island.” Exact payouts can change by route, performance, and game version, so this guide records the durable completion method rather than promising a fixed amount.

Avoid the usual mistakes

Useful tips

  • Use a fresh job vehicle when one is provided
  • Slow down before loading or unloading physics objects
  • Co-op is fastest when players split driving and object handling
Compatibility

Platform notes

Core objectives should be available across supported platforms; button prompts and physics can vary by platform and input method.
