🗑️ Waste Collection 🗑️

Drakenstein Municipality has received numerous applications for replacement bins. The collection teams will continue emptying all bins until Wednesday 18 September 2024, after which only official Drakenstein Municipality refuse bins will be serviced.

Residents can also collect bins directly from Drakenstein Municipality's office on Distillery Street in Paarl. Please call 021 807 4708 to arrange. When applying for a bin, please provide your name, address, municipal account number, number of bins required and your contact details.

Squash players must wear proper footwear to ensure optimal performance and protect the courts at the Sports & Leisure Centre. Only shoes with non-marking soles are permitted on the courts. Avoid running or tennis shoes, which can damage the court and result in gym closures for maintenance. 

Share the gift of warmth by donating a new blanket to those less fortunate than ourselves. Thank you to all our residents who have already contributed.

You can still help in the following ways - but time is running out:

Holistically Speaking | The Garden as a Sustainable Ecosystem

Creating a sustainable garden means working with nature to maintain balance and biodiversity. Here are five tips for cultivating a garden that supports a healthy ecosystem:

Plant Native Species: Native plants are adapted to local conditions and provide food and habitat for indigenous wildlife.

👨🏽‍🌾

Encourage Pollinators: Grow flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators to boost plant reproduction and biodiversity.

👨🏽‍🌾

Build Healthy Soil: Enrich your soil with compost and organic matter to support a diverse community of microorganisms that nourish your plants.

👨🏽‍🌾

Conserve Water: Use mulch, rain barrels, and drought-tolerant plants to minimise water use and reduce your garden’s environmental impact.

👨🏽‍🌾

Foster Natural Pest Control: Introduce beneficial insects and companion plants to manage pests without harmful chemicals.

Just as nurturing a balanced ecosystem leads to a thriving garden, maintaining balance in your financial portfolio ensures sustainable growth.
