While services will continue as normal, collection teams might arrive earlier than expected. <br></p> | <p style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Formal areas</strong></p><p>Services will continue according to public holiday arrangements.<br></p><p>Residents are reminded of the following:</p><ul><li>As normal, please place your bin outside for collection by 06:00 on the scheduled refuse collection day. </li><li>Please be encouraged not to wait for the refuse collection vehicle to enter your street before taking the bin to the pavement. The collection teams might arrive much earlier than usual as there is likely to be reduced traffic congestion on the roads on these days.</li><li>Should there be delays and your refuse is not collected on the scheduled day, please do not leave it outside overnight. Take it out again each day until it has been collected.</li></ul>Please do not resort to dumping.<br><br><figure class="subtopic-fullsize-img"><img class="responsive" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/Media%20Images%202/Maitland%20Lotus%20RiverSpring%20Clean.jpg" alt="" style="width:949px;" /></figure><span style="text-decoration-line:underline;"><strong>Informal areas</strong></span><br>
