Community Feedback

What People Say

We have created a lasting positive impact in several regions. Here are a few testimonials.
Trezlin Williams
CCT Urban Mobility

The mural is a wonderful additional to the PTI. It has completely transformed the entrance. There's vibrancy now!

Karen Nyarufero
MES

The education on organic waste has an impact at our office as we used to throw it in the dust bins and not put it aside as something that can be used. We are grateful as we take the new page on our food waste. BBT also opened a door for collectors, sorters and composters from our homeless community to earn a stipend.

Shaun Trytsman
Property Manager

I see the graffiti team every day removing posers and tags. It's making a huge visible difference, especially on South Street.

Derek Bock
Voortrekker Road CID

The VRCID is indeed grateful for the BBT campaign launched by the GTP and City of Cape Town. Although much still needs to be done, the difference is clearly visible...

Abdiel Abbas
Golden Arrow Bus Services

We have definitely noted a difference at the terminus. The area is much cleaner, and we love the way everything is arranged with regard to the bins.

Tony Lefluer
Urban Mobility

Let me take this opportunity to thank the BBT Waste team for a job well done. I think this project has a very positive impact on the users of the PTI.

Tamara staff member
Fountain fish & chips

The food waste collection services have been very helpful to us, as we produce a lot of food waste. Our normal waste bins are no longer smelling, and we no longer get worms in our backs because we separate our food waste. The organic collection service is excellent; they collect regularly, and we have never experienced challenges with collection.

William Mfundi
Store manager at Belrail Hardware

I think all businesses in Bellville need to be part of the BBT waste management initiative. I am happy to be part of the organic business services here in Bellville, including the food waste collection, which is working very well for us. The collection service is consistent, and they make sure that our buckets are emptied every week, and they give bukashi.
