Geo Pomona Waste LU Management (Pvt) Ltd has taken a proactive step in addressing Harare’s waste management challenges by releasing a detailed Tuesday waste collection schedule.

The move is part of a broader strategy to improve sanitation, protect public health, and maintain a cleaner environment in the capital city.

The schedule outlines specific regions and sub-areas across Harare where waste will be collected every Tuesday. These include high-traffic business districts, residential suburbs, and developing urban communities. The service is structured to ensure regular garbage removal in densely populated and strategically important areas.

In Region 1, waste collection will cover the Central Business District (CBD), with areas such as Julius Nyerere Uptown and Downtown targeted. Other suburbs in Region 1 include Msasa Park, where waste will be collected from areas north and south of Msasa Drive up to Homestead. Hatfield is also part of this region, with collection zones including Chadcombe, Park Meadowlands, Logan Park, Manyame Airbase, and surrounding areas bounded by key roads such as Chiremba, Harare Drive, and Seke Road.

Sunningdale (comprising Sunningdale 1, 2, and 3) and Waterfalls are also included, with the latter covering a wide range of communities such as Houghton Park, Ardbennie, Mainway Meadows, Hopely Township, and others.

Region 3 will see collections in Glen Norah (A, B, and C), Chitubu, Sisk Area, and Longlines. Highfield, which is divided into Areas A and B for the purpose of waste management, includes Old Canaan, Jerusalem, Egypt Lines, and Western Triangle in Highfield A, while Highfield B includes Fidelity Houses, Old Highfield, and new stands around Chinyaradzo and PWD compounds.

Region 4 will focus on Westgate and Westgate Area D, which are among Harare’s growing residential and commercial zones. These areas are particularly important due to rapid population growth and infrastructure development.

Pomona Waste Geo LU Management has emphasised that effective waste collection is critical for maintaining public hygiene and supporting Zimbabwe’s efforts toward sustainable urban development. The company has encouraged residents in the listed areas to place their waste bins outside by 7:00 AM on Tuesday mornings and to avoid practices such as illegal dumping and obstruction of collection trucks.

In a statement, Pomona Waste Geo LU Management reiterated their commitment to creating a cleaner and healthier city.

“The company views regular and efficient waste collection as not only a service but also a partnership with residents. Citizens are also urged to report missed collections or areas of concern through the company’s helpline or digital platforms,” said Geo Pomona.

This initiative marks a vital step toward organised and transparent urban waste management in Harare. With collaboration between waste management companies and the public, Zimbabwe can move closer to achieving its vision of clean, sustainable, and livable urban spaces.
