Grand Cayman, December 14, 2021 – The Department of Environmental Health (DEH) is advising Cayman Brac residents that the Annual Bulk Waste Collection on the Sister Island is scheduled as follows:

·         December, 16 to 17 – East Route (from Spot Bay to Dennis Foster and East of the Bluff)

·         December, 18 and 20 – West End Route (Dennis Foster West – Georgina Drive and West of the Bluff)

·         December 21 to 22 – South Side (Cross Road – South Side East and West)

Cayman Brac residents are reminded to place their bulk waste on the curbside ahead of the collection schedule, to ensure timely and efficient collection. The bulk waste should be in an area that is easily accessible to the collection crew and does not obstruct the roadway. Any items put out after scheduled dates will not be collected.

Bulk waste refers to large items such as old furniture, mattresses, rugs, household appliances, carpeting, scrap metal, vegetative waste, and other items that are not collected as part of the DEH’s weekly residential pick-up services. However, construction and demolition debris, hazardous material, electronics and tyres will not be collected during the bulk waste removal activity. Persons are required to make alternative arrangements to transport these items to the landfill.

Members of the public are reminded that this collection schedule only applies to Cayman Brac. The Bulk Waste Collection Scheduled for Grand Cayman has been completed since November 27, 2021.
