What Makes Trash Dash CLT Stand Out
Collecting garbage, recyclables, yard waste, and bulk items isn’t rocket science – but there is a science to it!
The City of Charlotte Solid Waste Services Department is one of the largest municipal collection systems in the southeastern United States. Each day, more than 300 employees have to navigate a variety of challenges from equipment failure, staffing shortages, weather conditions, collection impediments (cars parked on the street, overfilled carts, items not out for collection, etc), all while collecting and dumping garbage in a timely manner.
These challenges impact service quality, budget, and customer satisfaction.
Trash Dash CLT puts you in charge of Solid Waste Services. During the game you will have to navigate several common challenges faced by the solid waste team.
Your goal is to collect as much trash as possible in order to keep the city happy! When you collect trash on time, Charlotte's happiness will go up and you will be rewarded with extra trucks, which you will need to keep up with increased trash from an ever growing population. If you don't collect trash on time, Charlotte's happiness will go down and eventually it will be Game Over!
As your trucks fill up, you will need to take the time to send them to dump trash at the landfill. You will also need to monitor and repair your trucks or they will break down.
Just like in real life, the trash never stops rolling out and you will need more trucks to keep up. Different parts of the city will grow at different times, so it's up to you to adapt and properly manage your fleet of trucks with the time you have.
How will you keep up with these challenges? The more you play, the better you will get. You will also earn perks that allow you to upgrade various parts of your operation as you see fit. Good luck!
This Education game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
This games concept is so simple, yet kinda complicated and fun! We definitely LOL at ourselves not taking care of our trucks and forgetting to empty them.
This game is a great way to distract yourself because of how simple and fun it is! We definitely recommend playing this game if you havent already because its educational, fun, and its free.
FANTASTIC game!!! Super addictive #lovintheperks.
Super fun game. Really appreciate the good work that CLT sanitation services does.
This is a simple, but entertaining game. Our son and we enjoy playing it. The raccoon is so cute too.
We love this game, sooo fun! Great Job.
And we are already hooked. Such a cute game that teaches everyone how the waste system works and the challenges we must account for.
This game is so user friendly and fun. Its a great game to start and pick back up whenever. Each round starts back up pretty fast and Ronny the raccoon is so cute.
Informative, very cute, and fun. Gameplay itself is actually pretty unique within the mobile gaming landscape. Heavily recommend.
We were intrigued when we saw this game and our boy Ronny the raccoon got us right! He taught us all about the trash in the city and we were like dang! We aint even know it was that much trash in city. Fun & informative Im hooked . Most fun ever.
We had no idea how much work it took to keep our city clean. Born and raised in CLT so we feel especially tied to this game. We had so much fun playing definitely a new favorite.
This was a very fun game and opened our eyes to what Solid Waste collection staff encounter on a daily basis.
What a great way to learn about waste management. We need Trash Dash merch, we need that raccoon with us everywhere.
This game is ADORABLE! With a cute little mascot by your side, you control CLTs solid waste team as you drive around 5 districts collecting various trash bags to keep your city happy. A simple premise and minimalistic design that works to show awareness on those who work every day to keep our beautiful city as clean as possible.
This is a fun frantic resource management game from a local indie developer that also makes you think about how trash collection isnt as simple as you may think.
