Public advised of limited space for garden greens at drop-off facilities until further notice

9 November 2021

​The City’s Solid Waste Management Department is making every effort to accommodate garden waste as far as possible at drop-off facilities, but space is limited.

​Residents, and especially landscaping contractors, are advised that space is limited to stockpile garden greens at the following drop-off sites as there is currently no greens chipping service available on site:
 
•       Woodstock
•       Hout Bay
•       Kommetjie
•       Mitchells Plain
•       Gordons Bay
•       Killarney
•       Tygerdal
•       Wynberg
 
The City is working to minimise inconvenience as far as possible by transporting the stockpiled greens from drop-off facilities to the landfill. Capacity at the facilities is limited, however, and customers may be directed to Coastal Park and Vissershok landfill sites as alternative facilities.
 
To reduce the risk of sites reaching capacity, residents and businesses are requested to please dispose of garden greens at landfills wherever possible.
 
Any inconvenience is sincerely regretted.
