The Bisasar Road Landfill in Springfield, Durban has been downscaled after reaching its full capacity.
The site, which has been in operation for the past 35 years and has accepted more than 19 million tons of waste from throughout the eThekwini region, will no longer be open to commercial customers.
However it will still accept separately collected/clean garden refuse, cover materials and builder’s rubble, which are required in order to rehabilitate the site.
The City urged all customers to dispose of their future waste at one of following landfill sites: North Buffelsdraai, West Mariannhill and Lovu landfill sites.
