CIANJUR - The Cianjur Regency Government (Pemkab) leased nine lever trucks or dump trucks to transport garbage that piled up in urban areas and provincial roads.

Cianjur Regent Herman Suherman said this was to speed up the transportation of waste to the Mekarsari TPSA location which took four hours.

"I asked for quick treatment today, where the relevant agencies rented dump trucks to transport piles of garbage, which since the last few weeks have graced the city and suburbs," he said in Cianjur Monday, March 3, as reported by Antara.

He also admitted that his party had submitted the purchase of eight new dump trucks so that the transportation process could run quickly every day.

His party noted that of the dozens of dump trucks belonging to the Cianjur Environmental Service (DLH), currently the conditions are not optimal for carrying garbage with a road field that is quite difficult to pass, so the travel time becomes long, the impact is that there are many piles of garbage in urban areas.

"We have broadcast the dump truck procurement project through e-catalog in the hope that it can be realized soon so that there will be no more delays in transporting waste every day," said Herman.

He explained that currently the disposal of garbage has been official to Mekarsari TPSA since March 1, but the road has climbed and decreased sharply, making the dump truck owned by DLH Cianjur difficult to arrive on time because its condition is no longer optimal.

"We hope that with the new fleet, there will be no more piles of garbage in urban areas and other areas in Cianjur, with a new fleet which is expected to take distance and travel time can be done quickly," he said.

Head of DLH Cianjur Ahmad Rifai, said that the accumulation of garbage along the protocol road to provincial roads has been due to the unfunction of the new TPSA in Cikalongkulon District, plus a fleet of old garbage trucks.

"Sampah is piling up in every corner of the city because Mekarsari's new TPSA is just operating, plus only a few garbage trucks are owned that can dispose of garbage to Mekarsari, so garbage transportation is too late," he said.

However, his party is targeting that in the next few days the accumulated waste in a number of areas will be transported and dumped to the Mekarsari TPSA. To support the speed of transportation, his party has submitted an addition of a new truck fleet to the district government and the central government.
