Our waste collection efforts to make Harare clean have gained pace as we have moved 27,432 tonnes of waste in March. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We were engaged by the Local Government and Public Works Ministry as well as the City of Harare to collect waste in the capital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uncollected garbage had become a serious problem in Harare until the authorities sought to establish a private partnership with us at the end of last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have been collecting an average of 1,500 tonnes per day between 1 March 2025 and 25 March 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cumulatively, our weighbridges at the Pomona site recorded 274322.48 tonnes by 25 March 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The waste was collected in over 2,000 trips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In February,\u00a0our target was 21830, but\u00a0we have collected 32841 as of\u00a027 February, 2025, having started the clean up on 10 February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have been executing waste collection in a phased approach, starting with the clearing of illegal dumpsites across Harare. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To accelerate the process while awaiting the delivery of Geo Pomona Waste collection fleet, we have entered into a strategic partnership with Bitumen World. This collaboration enables us to begin addressing the growing challenge of illegal dumpsites immediately, ensuring a visible impact in restoring cleanliness and order in the city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our phased approach prioritises the removal of illegal dumpsites, after which we will implement a structured and efficient waste collection system. We continue to work closely with key stakeholders to ensure the success of this initiative and to drive long-term improvements in waste management across Harare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
