WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES

WHEELIE BINS FOR RESIDENTS

Waste Management Services wish to advise that wheelie bins are still available for those residents who do not currently have a wheelie bin for the disposal of domestic waste, prior to weekly collection.

Residents are requested to contact the Environmental Risk Manager, Mike Durnford, on tel: 24724 or via email: mike-durnford@enrd.gov.sh in the first instance to register for a wheelie bin. Once registered, bins will be available for collection from the Landfill Manager, Patrick Crowie, at Horse Point Landfill Site from Mondays to Fridays between 9am and 3pm.

Residents are encouraged to make use of wheelie bins rather than depositing bagged waste directly onto the ground, where they may become damaged and the contents removed by scavenging pests e.g. birds, cats and rats. This can cause an environmental impact, making an area look unsightly, become foul smelling and encouraging infestation from flies and maggots.

Waste Management Services is committed to working in partnership for a cleaner and greener St Helena and thanks the public for their continued cooperation.
