How Think Twice works
Think Twice is a recycling project for dry waste (recyclables), rolled out by the City of Cape Town in selected parts of the city. WasteWant collects recyclables from participating neighbourhoods and households on the City's behalf.
- The City supplies wheelie bins in some areas. Where it doesn't, we supply clear recycling bags and replace them every time we collect
- Recyclables are collected weekly on your suburb's collection day
- Recyclables are kept separate from your normal household waste
Find your collection day
Type your suburb to see which day your recyclables are collected. Some suburbs are covered by more than one route, so they may appear on more than one day.
