Surabaya Waste Fleet GPS Tracking & Cleanliness Dashboard

Since early 2026 Surabaya's Environmental Agency (DLH) has fitted its rubbish-collection trucks with GPS trackers and fed that data, alongside citizen photo reports and recurring problem locations, into a real-time cleanliness dashboard shared across sanitation, sub-district, transport, and health departments. Mayor Eri Cahyadi said the tracking lets officials see exactly how long a truck takes travelling between a transfer point (TPS) and the landfill (TPA). The system is too new for any published before/after figures on collection speed, coverage, or cost.
