Mohu said it plans to purchase around 1,000 trucks and will initially take delivery of 165 Mercedes vehicles from Germany.
The first new trucks will be put into service in various parts of the country from 2025.
Mohu said that the average age of the 2,000 garbage trucks currently operating in Hungary is 13 years.
The average age of the trucks could be lowered below 10 years by 2027 with the new purchases.
Mohu has committed to raising Hungary’s recycling rate from 32% to 65% by 2035.
