  1. Notice

    Keeping waste collection safe during the COVID-19 lockdown

    With the landfill only partly working during the nationwide lockdown, NEPCEMAC asked households to keep waste safely packed until collection staff arrived, sort degradable from non-degradable waste and compost at home where possible, never dump waste outside, and hand waste over only in bags — not in buckets they take back inside.

    Collection staff stopped blowing whistles to avoid touching their faces, using the vehicle horn instead, and residents were asked to report any worker seen without a mask or gloves.
