The EMA finally stepped in and ordered Herentals to cease their illegal dumping operations for good. Watching our streets finally clear of those flyers feels like a weight has been lifted off this community. Please stay vigilant and keep reporting them if you see any new signs of this behavior …

As you have no doubt seen our city was recently besieged by a barrage of so called “marketing” from HERENTALS GROUP OF COLLEGES. The group has acted without regard for the State, Council and environmental protection laws of our City, and have been repeat offenders in littering our city with their flyers over a number of years and in a number of towns. In some cases their littering has been accompanied by violent and verbally abusive behaviour. Council, Police and the Environmental Management Agency (EMA) have been trying to stop their criminal behavior without success. We need your help to put a stop to this NOW.

I spent the afternoon walking around downtown and seeing the fresh piles of flyers was a gut punch. It is infuriating that this keeps happening despite the reports we have filed with the authorities. I am working on a formal follow up with the local council to demand they actually enforce the environmental laws we have in place.

Seeing this kind of momentum feels like a weight finally lifting off my shoulders. It confirms that I am not the only one tired of walking through streets covered in this constant stream of paper trash. We are clearly proving that our city will not accept this behavior any longer.

on the 2end of March they threw loads of papers all over Matsheumhlope I stopped to give way to them and they threw their papers in my face as my window was open .it's no the first time they have littered Matsheumhlope. it needs to stop
Hope they don't teach their students that it's okay to do this and to totally disregard the laws. Disgusting behaviour
Disgusting and should be stopped!! Saw them on a back of a truck throwing out hundreds the other day and yesterday all over Khumalo
I managed to photograph the vehicle and driver littering on Napier Ave car Banff Rd today 2 March 2017; I immediately went and saw Mr Ncube at EMA who has the photographs. I told him to contact me if he needs a formal statement or written complaint.
Please stop littering our beautiful Zimbabwe!!!!!!! You have been fined before...I gave you some real cheapo and effective means of advertising ideas about 2 years ago...but you keep resorting to paying a few people to advertise for you in a very bad manner.
Advertising can be done in a more discreet way. Not by littering.
