A total of 2,559 personnel are actively participating in the operation, supported by 679 small and large vehicles dedicated to transporting waste. To streamline the collection process, 24 designated collection points have been established across the city.

Smaller vehicles are responsible for gathering the waste from various locations and bringing it to these collection points, from where it is subsequently transported to the dumping site.

At the dumping site, a pit has been specifically dug to handle the disposal of the collected waste. The waste is being systematically destroyed by covering it with soil after thorough spraying. Additionally, extensive spraying activities are being carried out both in the city and at the dumping site to maintain sanitary conditions.
