Dubai Municipality’s waste management teams have effectively carried out cleaning

operations across all 10 Eid prayer areas in the emirate. Furthermore, they have

placed supplementary garbage bins near mosques, event venues, crowded areas, along
with 30 extra waste storage facilities that are widely distributed to cover emergency

cases and crowded areas.

Working hours

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.
