Pikitup has released its refuse collection schedule for the festive season.
In a statement, the waste management entity advised Johannesburg residents whose refuse collection falls on Christmas Day not to take out their refuse bins on this day. Rather, take out refuse bins on 1 January next year for collection. This as normal refuse collection will take place on all public holidays except on Christmas Day.
Pikitup is appealing to residents to refrain from giving its employees Christmas gifts as its employees are barred from asking for gifts from residents.
This as during the 2017 festive season, bogus Pikitup employees received gifts and were, as a result, arrested on charges of fraud and misrepresentation.
