Taiwan Garbage Truck Map — Claude Code MCP server
A read-only MCP server for garbage-truck stops, routes, and arrival data in Taipei, New Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung. Use it to check nearby collection points.
claude mcp add --transport http taipei-trash https://mcp.garbage.yukai.dev/mcpWhat Taiwan Garbage Truck Map does
This server gives an agent access to public garbage-truck data without write operations. Its tools list supported cities, locate stops near coordinates, search by district, village, road, or route term, and return the route connected to a selected stop. Nearby searches accept distances from 50 to 2,000 m.
New Taipei and Taichung include weekday schedules with ISO weekday values and a servesToday result. Taipei and Kaohsiung do not provide those weekday fields. Times use Asia/Taipei; city data loads on demand and stays cached in memory for one hour. Taichung’s dataset is about 50 MB and can use around 400 MB of memory after a cold load.
Connect clients to https://mcp.garbage.yukai.dev/mcp; no authentication is required. Browser requests with an Origin header are rejected unless that origin appears in MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS, so browser-based access needs an allowlist entry. Native and server-side clients can connect without sending that header.
What it helps with
- locate nearby garbage-truck stops from coordinates
- check a collection route in a district
- retrieve arrival times for a selected stop
- match a stop with the collection day
- list cities supported by the server
Example prompts for the agent
- Find garbage-truck stops within 500 m of coordinates 25.0330, 121.5654.
- Search Taichung stops by district and tell me which ones serve today.
- Get the route schedule for this stop and order its stops by arrival time.
