Waste team to clear waste collection backlog in Benoni over the weekend

The City of Ekurhuleni announced that it has devised a waste removal catch-up plan to clear the backlog in Benoni areas.

The catch-up schedule is set to be implemented this weekend (August 20 and 21).

Residents of the targeted areas are advised to, in the meantime, keep their 240L wheelie bins in their yards and only take them out on August 20 and 21.

Here are the areas to be serviced on the weekend:

Northmead – Rynfield Struben, Rynfield Miles Sharp, Morehill shops/businesses and Airfield
Farrarmere – Goedeberg, shops/businesses
Western Ext – Apex, Mackenzie Park, Mackenzie Park, Westdene, Lakefield, Alphen Park and shops/businesses
Brentwood Park – Rynfield, Ebotse, Benoni Small Farm, Benoni RD, Orchards, Marister, Putfontein Plot, Benoni AH, Benoni North, Brentwood Park AH, Rynfield AH, shops/businesses

The city promised to provide constant updates to affected residents as and when there are new developments in resolving the backlog. This will be done through ward councillors and customer relations management.

The city pointed out that it is working on a permanent solution to prevent waste removal backlogs in the city.
