Dubai is planning to charge more for rubbish dumped at its landfill sites. It’s part of a plan to encourage recycling, which will also see the building of thirteen new recycling centres. Waste disposal companies will be charged according to the weight and type of waste. It comes as Abu Dhabi considers charging its residents for rubbish collection by mid-2016. The pay-as-you-throw scheme could see costs rise according to the size of your property. The government’s waste disposal department Tadweer is studying the proposal, as announced at the 6th Annual Waste Management Middle East Forum this week.
