DUMPING WASTE IN PLACES OTHER THAN DESIGNATED MUNICIPAL DROP-OFF FACILITIES IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE

Illegal dumping and littering are among the biggest challenges faced by the Langeberg Municipality and its residents because it...

• lower community pride & quality of life,
• drive business and tourists away,
• devalue properties,
• waste vital funds on clean-ups,
• can cause injury and infection,
• block water channels causing flooding,
• breed germs and pests that spread disease,
• pollute soil, air and water resources,
• and harm plant, animal and human life.

Together we can stop illegal dumping to enjoy a beautiful, clean & healthy neighbourhood

• Always put waste in your wheelie bin or garbage bag and place it on the pavement on the municipality’s waste collection days or drop off your waste at an approved drop-off facility (click here).
• Obtain additional waste bins if needed.
• Separate your paper, plastic, glass and metal waste for recycling.
• Fence off your property to prevent others from dumping waste on it.
• Help others understand the importance of keeping our environment clean, litter-free, and healthy.
• Report those who illegally dump waste immediately to the municipality's 24/7 Call Centre:
