Waste Management & Street Cleaning

  • Recurrent demand for household waste services:

    • Provision of new bins: standard, large, small, organic, recycling (blue) and replacement of broken, burnt-out or missing units.
    • Relocation of obstructive bins away from driveways, mosque façades, or private parking spaces.
    • Complaints that collectors leave containers in wrong spots or throw them down roughly, causing fractures.
    • Requests for regularised schedules and for notification of collection times (some clients ask for exact hour).
    • Several streets reported filled with sand, construction debris, or miscellaneous refuse needing mechanised sweeping ("شيول") and road brushing trucks ("سيارة بروش").
    • Size-mismatch issues: mosque wants two big bins replaced with small ones; villa owners want small → big upgrades.
    • Repeated cases where bins were removed without notice and must be restored.

  • Post-accident / road-hazard cleaning (dozens of incidents):

    • Traffic Operations (2359751/2359752/2359683 etc.) routinely call for “عمال لتنظيف مخلفات حادث مروري/إطارات/حريق”.
    • Precise GIS locations given (e.g. طريق الشمال – جسر المزروعة، دوار سبايتار، استاد خليفة، تحت نفق الميدماك) with mobile patrol numbers (e.g. 70004714, 77001828).
