Dubai Municipality is encouraging residents to take advantage of their free service to remove large amounts of household waste from their homes and neighborhoods as part of their ongoing efforts to support locals, raise the standard of living, and maintain the emirate clean.
Residents can use their WhatsApp channel to request that the waste management department dispose of bulk or residual waste, such as household furniture and electrical or electronic waste, at specific locations throughout Dubai.
This initiative by the Civic Body is timely — recent rains in the UAE flooded several homes, submerging household belongings. The water damaged many items, and while some residents managed to salvage a few, others had to dispose of theirs.
Here's how to contact Dubai Municipality:
- Apply for the service through WhatsApp 800900
- Residents will receive a phone call from Dubai Municipality's employee to schedule an appointment for the bulk waste collection within three days from the application receipt date
- People will receive an SMS after bulk waste collection is completed
