Proper Waste Disposal

Dear Residents

Recently, we noticed that bags of refuse were left along the pavement outside premises instead of being placed in the refuse bins provided. As a result, rodents were attracted by the smell of the food waste and were seen gnawing the bags to get to the food remains. Rodents can transmit infectious diseases. In addition, they can gnaw your household furniture, building structures a well as cables and wires which could lead to potential fire hazards.


Hence, we would like to seek residents’ cooperation to dispose of bags of refuse properly into the refuse bins provided by the Public Waste Collector (PWC) for collection. Should you need to dispose of any bulky waste, please contact your regular waste contractor or any of the PWCs listed on the “Guide to Proper Waste Disposal” flyer.

Let’s do our part to keep our environment clean and green.

We thank you for your cooperation.
