Dear Thimphu City residents,
Please be informed that there will be a temporary disruption of waste collection services on Monday and Tuesday. Due to unforeseen circumstances, our regular waste collection operations will be briefly suspended during this period. We kindly request your cooperation and understanding during this time.
Disruption Period: Monday(31/7/2023) and Tuesday(1/8/2023)
Services Resume: Wednesday(2/8/2023)
While we understand the inconvenience this may cause, we encourage you to bear with us as we work tirelessly to resolve the issue and get back to our regular schedule. In the meantime, we kindly ask you not to leave waste or litter in public areas, as this can have adverse effects on our environment and community.
What can you do to help?
Use Waste Drop-off Facilities: We have designated waste drop-off facilities for use by residents across the city. If possible, please consider using these facilities to dispose of your waste during the disruption period.
Minimize Waste Generation: Let's make a collective effort to minimize waste production during these two days. Simple steps like reducing single-use plastic and practicing mindful consumption can make a significant difference.
Be Patient and Supportive: We understand that waste management is crucial for a clean and healthy environment. Your patience and understanding are invaluable to us during this temporary challenge.
For any waste-related emergencies or inquiries, feel free to contact our toll free helpline at 1009 or email us at customercare@thimphucity.gov.
Let's work together to keep Thimphu City clean and beautiful. With your cooperation and support, we are confident that we can overcome this disruption and resume regular waste collection services from Wednesday.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
Sincerely,
Thimphu City Waste Management Team
