However, when incinerators in other counties undergo maintenance or experience malfunctions, it becomes difficult to manage the waste. Currently, more than 60,000 tons of garbage are piled up across the county, with over 20,000 tons in Xiluo alone, causing widespread public complaints. In response, the Yunlin County government has launched a waste packing plan today to reduce odors and address the issue of insufficient storage space.

The "Ten-Thousand-Ton Garbage Mountain" in Nantou has nowhere to be incinerated, spreading a foul stench｜20210902
Nantou County does not have its own waste incineration plant, so most of the garbage is sent to the Taichung City incineration plant for disposal. However, in recent years, the Taichung incineration plant has been shut down for annual maintenance, leaving Nantou County with no place to send its waste. As a result, garbage has piled up into mountains, with some areas even seeing "garbage waterfalls." The county government is urging the central authorities to assist with waste management and plan for the construction of an incineration plant to resolve the growing waste problem.
