Delays in Refuse Collection

George Municipality wishes to inform residents about delays in refuse collection caused by the breakdown of several compactor trucks.

While some trucks have already been repaired, the current number of operational vehicles is insufficient to ensure prompt collection.

Affected Areas:
• Wilderness East: Collection will begin later than scheduled.
• George CBD, Businesses, Schools, and Glentana: Expect delays in refuse collection.

To manage the situation, internal operations have been adjusted to prioritise the use of available trucks. Refuse collection in the affected areas will commence as soon as trucks complete their initial rounds.

Important Information:
Residents are kindly requested to leave their refuse outside until collection is completed. Rest assured; all refuse will be collected as soon as possible.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
