KDEB will only take "household rubbishes" tied inside plastic bag. They wont take loose items at all. Except for metal because you know why.

The only people that will collect your cardboard boxes, cut plants, mattress, basically any loose items are subcontractors from MBSJ, MBPJ, MBSA etc. BUT they wont enter in your housing lane. They only will use main road in your taman. If your taman is guarded they also seldom come. Probably once a month depends on their work schedule.

As I said plastic bottles is not household waste. 1 or 2 bottles per plastic bag, yes. But a plastic bag full of bottles is not a household waste. Its your responsibility to send them to recycling centre or if your taman got recycling day, give it to them.

KDEB used to pickup most of the rubbish but people tend to misuse them discarding commercial rubbishes. People are running businesses and restaurants inside houses illegally and producing a lot of commercial wastes then just tie into plastic bag and hope the lorry will come pick up. Thats why Majlis became very strict now only picking up household rubbish only. Im not saying youre doing it, but because of some, the rules became tighter.

As for the roro, they have a schedule to follow. If they miss their schedule, then you have a right to complaint.

Edit
It could also be because now is puasa, so probably they altered their schedule a bit to go home fast.

Why not send the cardboard boxes to recycling instead?

I do that too 😂 with glass.

Most of the time I try to recycle and separate my waste for the local recycling centre. The only problem is that they don't collect GLASS as they are disable or down syndrome staff. Apparently they get injured by broken glass incidents.. So this is the only item I dump as waste.

Unless if you want to be like me, only send to recycling center in a bulk  send it maybe once every 2-3 months, as long as can shove everything in a car in 1 go

but will occupy some house space la for holding the stuffs until you send it

I worked with MPKJ and KDEB last time to ensure the bulk items lorry to enter our housing lanes and pickup the bulk waste. What we found out is that these contractors did not do their work to pickup infront of ppl houses but instead divert their time to commercial shop houses area as it contain more valuable recyclable stuff like boxes while housing lanes contain more of garden waste and smaller boxes. They just simply roam the housing area main road just to snap picture of our housing area in their check list. This is wrong!

As Resident Association President I managed to get KDEB to admit their mistake and reprimand their drivers. As of now my housing lanes and common areas always got bulk waste roro lorry pickup infront of our houses because they knw we will always report!

So please please .. make a report via the apps ya .. dont simply assume things

MBSA got separate truck to collect recyclables....
if u no live under MBSA, then depend on your local council

KDEB only collect general domestic waste.
Their workers will take high value recyclables to sell on their own, but low value ones like cardboard and glass, sometimes wont take.

if u wanna sneak stuff in though... usually, stuff like Styrofoam, i cut into small pieces and dispose with my regular trash slowly....
so, they wont reject it for being straight up styrofoam
