Urban Waste Management Collections vehicles operating under law enforcement escort in Philippi East area
09 May 2023
Residents of Philippi East are assured that the City of Cape Town is working to clear refuse in the area after a short disruption last week.
The disruption occurred due to the killing of a contract worker in the area. A law enforcement escort had to be arranged before services could resume. This has now been done.
Where the safety of City workers in an area is compromised, it could result in a delay in the collection of refuse. We urge residents not to resort to illegal dumping. Please take your bin back into your property overnight to prevent theft, and take it out for collection again the following morning.
The City remains committed to service delivery in all communities.
