Waste collection in your ward

Report a problem, find out when your waste is collected, and see what the municipality is doing about it.

No account needed. It takes about a minute.

Type the reference you were given, or the phone number you used.

  • 1,855tonnes collected
  • 78%kept out of the ground
  • 9wards served

Monsoon notice: collections in Wards 4 and 5 may run up to two hours late until 30 September while the Hnila Road culvert is repaired. Please keep bins on the roadside, never in the drain.

How it works

  1. Take a photograph

    A picture of the bin or the lane says more than a paragraph, and it is optional.

  2. Tell us what happened

    A few words, and the place. Scanning the code on a bin fills the place in for you.

  3. Keep your reference

    You get a reference number. Quote it when you ring, and we can find your report.

    Door-to-door collection starts in Ward 7 (Hoaikyong) on 21 September

    From Monday 21 September a municipal van will pass every lane in Ward 7 on alternate evenings between 6 pm and 10 pm. Please put your bins out by 5:30 pm: food waste in the green bin, everything else in the black one. The crew will ring a bell as it enters each lane. Bags left in the drain or on the embankment will not be collected.

  • Sabrang beach clean-up removes 1.2 tonnes of plastic

    On Friday morning 140 volunteers from three schools and the fishermen’s cooperative worked alongside municipal crews along the Sabrang shoreline. Together they filled 96 sacks, mostly bottles, food wrappers and torn netting, which went to the transfer station for sorting. Thank you to everyone who came. The next clean-up is on the first Friday of October; meet at Sabrang ghat at 7 am.

  • Forty new covered bins along the Hnila Road

    Forty covered 240-litre bins have been placed at the roadside between Teknaf Bazar and the Hnila junction, roughly one every two hundred metres. Each carries a printed code: scan it with your phone to report a full or damaged bin and the form will already know which one you mean. The bins are emptied on the afternoon round. Please close the lid after use so that dogs and crows cannot scatter the contents.
