Street care and cleaning

One of our street sweepers near the famous SuperLambBanana
The Street Cleansing Service is responsible for the day-to-day cleansing requirements of the city. The service includes:
  • Street sweeping
    Removing litter, silt, dead weeds and dog faeces from hard surfaces within its responsibilities. Litter picking from all unallocated public open spaces, grass verges and planted areas adjoining the highway.

  • Litter bin emptying 
    Bins are emptied on set dates.

  • Gully cleansing 
    This is done twice a year to help the drainage of roadways and reduce the risk of damage to property.

  • Fly tipping (wasteland dumping)
    Removed within 10 days of reporting.

Additional services include:

  • Weed spraying on highways and passages.
  • Street washing as directed.
  • Dead animal removal (usually within 1 day).
