Let’s clean up Cape Town, together

Indianna Lawrie 16 February 2022

Our teams are cleaning up illegal dumping hotspots around Cape Town. We clear more than 180 000 tonnes of waste from illegal dumping spots annually, and it’s cost us more than R300 million over the last year. We are enforcing stronger fines and penalties for illegal dumping, and we need your help to put a stop to it. To report illegal dumping, you can call our call centre on 0860 103 089.
