Green Dot recycling company returns to weekly collection

Green Dot on Thursday informed the Cyprus Mail that it has reviewed its decision on collection dates.

It reported at the end of March it would collect items fortnightly instead of weekly, but soon realised the collection was more important than before.

“At a difficult time when we are all living at home and municipal waste production is high, it would not be right to reduce the frequency of recyclable materials,” the Green Dot announcement said.

“As a result, the collection programme will continue on a weekly basis.”

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
