Our take on RECYCLE

Instead of treating driving as the whole activity, the game places waste collection inside an operating business. Fleet growth, staffing, loans, licenses, routing, and processing facilities sit alongside vehicle control, replacing a simple transport loop with an enterprise-management structure.

What is RECYCLE?

RECYCLE: Garbage Truck Simulator combines vehicle operation with waste-company management.

Drive utility vans, garbage trucks, organic-waste vehicles, glass-recycling trucks, crawler cranes, dump trucks, and bulldozers through a simulated city. Collect residual waste, glass, plastic, and paper, then move materials to landfills and recycling facilities. Management tasks include hiring staff, expanding the vehicle fleet, planning collection routes, purchasing landfill licenses, and taking out loans. The city includes multiple districts, road traffic controlled by AI, traffic lights, and pedestrians. A statistics center presents figures related to the enterprise’s performance while the business expands through economic management.
