Back in 2018, civilization arrived in the form of centralized garbage disposal.

Before that, there was nothing like it. Apparently, it was expected that residents would haul all their trash to Sergach on their own. In reality, everything that could decompose went into a compost pit on the property, and everything else was hauled to a dump behind the highway, away from the village. Though locals did scavenge some of the waste—old machinery, metals, that sort of thing.

It's interesting to know where they take the garbage now. You'd like to think it's not just being dumped in some bigger pile.
