The garbage barges were identified as such in the script (), in an article on the website FXGuide, and, lastly, in another article in the magazine Cinefex. (; Cinefex, No. 134, p. 90) Also, Zachary Quinto described the vehicle as a "garbage truck". (Star Trek Into Darkness (Blu-ray))
The production crew that worked on Star Trek Into Darkness constructed the garbage barge as a full-scale set piece. The film's effects team mounted this to a hydraulic turntable which they built on the Playa Vista lot. The turntable was designed to spin and the resultant centrifugal force slid and swung the performers around, making the barge set seem to really be traveling. This illusion was heightened by the movements of shadows that the performers cast and by air movers that were used to input liquid nitrogen and live smoke effects, causing atmospherics to travel across the set.
