Hi
I have recently written to the general manager at the complex where I live to request re-cycling bins. The complex is large – consisting of 170 residential units, a hotel and an office block. So they could really make a difference. Am I wasting my time? Any help or information you can give would be much appreciated.
Hi Jackie
Great initiative, however providing the bins is only part of the solution. You will have to find someone to come and collect the recycling! As you have probably gathered there is no formal waste collection service provided by the municipality.
the only company (private) that I know of that may come and collect from your complex (free of charge) is Union Paper Mills.
http://www.upm.ae/
Try giving them a call and let us know how you go.
Alternatively, you could try and educate the residents about where they may be able to drop off their recycling. Check out our Sustainable Living Map for locations of recycling drop offs.
