Due to its properties, natural gas can be used in all transport segments. Compressed natural gas is effective in transport, which is operated in urban locations. This is passenger, light freight transport, utility machinery. The environmental impact of large fleets is higher than personal vehicles due to large annual mileage, so the fleets of trucks operating in the cities (municipal vehicles, buses) are the most significant for the introduction of new innovative solutions in terms of improving the environmental friendliness of vehicles. The problem of collecting municipal waste and its disposal are among the most important utilities. Vehicles for the export of solid household waste on compressed natural gas will reduce harmful emissions into the environment and create less noise compared to diesel counterparts, which is especially true in the morning. We considered the main manufacturers of garbage trucks in Russia. The trend of recent years is an increase in the proportion of rear-loading garbage trucks, which are gradually crowding out the rest. To form a natural gas automobile market, it is necessary to develop a service infrastructure: system of gas stations and fuel delivery, diagnostic and service centers. We also considered the issues of ensuring the required service quality for gas vehicles. One of the factors affecting the reliability of a vehicle is the quality and reliability of its components, assemblies and systems. We analyzed the defects of gas equipment and offered an adjustment of the maintenance process for gas equipment.
