Like other local municipalities, most coverage of the waste collection services is still in the urban coastal strip as can be seen in figure XX.

The combined level of service comprises both awareness campaigns, supervision and provision of refuse bags with recyclable waste collected. Upliftment frequencies range from weekly to quarterly. The coverage of service delivery is thus 69.4% of the municipality.
