The waste disposal and treatment facilities owned by Dubai

Municipality, such as the Al Qusais landfill and Bayada dump site,

will have set work hours on account of the cleaning operations for

Eid al-Fitr holiday. These facilities are scheduled to be open around

the clock throughout the holiday season. Additionally, the medical

waste incinerator at the Jebel Ali Hazardous Waste Treatment

Facility will operate continuously with no disruptions during the Eid

Al-Fitr holidays.

As part of the initiative, Dubai Municipality will also keep an eye on

the operations of private sector firms. All operations are set to be

carried out by seven different companies, three of which are in

charge of managing cleaning duties and waste segregation in public

and residential areas. Two of them will focus on promoting recycling

and meeting circular economy requirements, while another firm is

dedicated to transporting abandoned vehicles, along with one that

specializes in the upkeep of public health facilities.

More importantly, Dubai Municipality has announced that it will now

use its official website to provide a range of services and assistance

to the public and customers. These services include the ability to

request permits for disposing of hazardous waste, commercial

waste, and unwanted materials.
