CORFU. Corfu Municipal Cleansing and Recycling Service has announced that due to a fault in the SYDISA tracked dozer the depositing of refuse at Temploni landfill has been suspended since Tuesday 19th.

Announcement:

To date the problem hasn't been fixed and it is not known when it will be.

Our service has been forced to suspend refuse collection in all areas apart from Corfu Town but from tomorrow it will also be suspended there asall the available containers are full.

There is limited collection of recyclable waste as the municipal refuse trucks are full of mixed waste and cannot be emptied and used for recyclable materials.

In order to avoid the piling up of rubbish, which can already be seen in public areas, and what that entails for the environment we would like to request the following of residents:

1. Try to avoid dumping rubbish in the green bins for the next four days.
2. Don't dump large objects and rubble in the piles of rubbish as this makes collection more difficult.
3. Recyclable materials can be deposited as usual in the blue bins in the following areas: Corfu Town, the main roads in Achilleio, Parelion, Ag. Georgios, Esperion and Thinalia as there are trucks available there.

We remind you that there are many Recycling Centres on Corfu where you can take all your recyclables. These are situated in the following areas:
