PMC to Buy 81 Trash Vans for Improved Waste Management in New Areas

The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has announced the purchase of 81 new trash vans to improve waste management in recently merged areas. This initiative is part of the city's broader effort to enhance cleanliness and efficiency in waste collection and disposal.

With the expansion of Pune's municipal boundaries, there has been a significant increase in the volume of waste generated. The new trash vans aim to address this challenge by ensuring timely and efficient waste collection in these newly incorporated regions. The addition of these vehicles will bolster PMC's capacity to maintain cleanliness and hygiene standards across the city.

The decision to procure the trash vans comes in response to feedback from residents and local representatives about inadequate waste management services in the merged areas. The vans will be equipped with modern features to facilitate better waste handling and transportation, reducing the risk of spillage and ensuring a more hygienic environment.

PMC officials have emphasised the importance of this initiative in maintaining the city's commitment to sustainable waste management practices. The new trash vans are expected to streamline operations, minimise delays, and improve overall service quality.

In addition to acquiring new vehicles, PMC plans to enhance waste segregation practices and increase awareness among residents about the importance of proper waste disposal. This comprehensive approach aims to create a cleaner and healthier urban environment.

The introduction of 81 trash vans marks a significant step towards improving waste management infrastructure in Pune. It reflects PMC's dedication to addressing the needs of its growing population and ensuring a sustainable future for the city.
