Waste minimisation is a key focus of the City of
Cape Town. Drop-off facilities help citizens practise
‘reduce, reuse and recycle’ principles. All it takes is
a new mindset - think twice. Separation at source is
the key. Many City of Cape Town drop-off facilities
accept the following waste items: Garden
waste, motor oil, cans and metal, paper,
cardboard, glass, plastic, builder’s
rubble, e-waste and polystyrene. Specific
recyclables accepted vary per site. For
a downloadable map of the drop-off
facilities and details of the City’s ‘Think
Twice’ recycling collection programme,
and private recycling services, visit:
