ETHEKWINI NEWSFLASH

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BLACK REFUSE BAGS SUPPLY UPDATE

EThekwini Municipality advises residents of a temporary shortage of black refuse bags in some areas. 

This follows the South African Bureau of Standards verification of test samples, an essential step to ensure that all products supplied to the City meet approved quality standards.

The Municipality is working closely with all stakeholders to fast-track the tender process and ensure that supply is restored as soon as possible. 

Residents will be updated on developments.

In the interim, the City encourages residents to continue practising responsible waste management, including avoiding littering and illegal dumping. 

Collective efforts play a vital role in keeping eThekwini clean, safe, and sustainable.

EThekwini Municipality apologises for any inconvenience caused and thanks residents for their patience and cooperation during this period.
