AVALON DEPOT MAKES CHANGES TO WASTE COLLECTION SCHEDULE TO IMPROVE SERVICE DELIVERY

Pikitup’s Avalon Depot will be changing its refuse collection rounds with effect from 16 November 2020 in order to efficiently render waste collection services and to improve service delivery in areas serviced by the depot.

The changes in refuse collection schedule will be effected following an operational review process that indicated that the current waste collection schedule proved to be inefficient because areas that were far from each other were grouped together, making waste collection tedious and inefficient.

Consequently, the revised waste collection schedule seeks to infuse greater efficiencies in waste collection in all areas serviced by the depot by re-grouping residential areas and servicing them based on their proximity to each other. This in turn will ensure that waste collection services are rendered in a faster and highly efficient manner and it will also ensure that where there are service delivery challenges, the resultant backlogs are addressed expeditiously.

Pikitup acknowledges the minimal disruptions that the new schedule will bring forth as residents are used to the previous waste collection schedule. However, the new schedule will lead to greater efficiencies in waste collection services. It is against this backdrop that Pikitup is appealing to residents to comply with the new waste collection schedule in areas serviced by the Avalon Depot. Below is the new schedule that will be implemented on a weekly basis as of the 16^th November 2020.
