The Collectivity would like to remind you that it is possible to have an end-of-life vehicle removed from private property free of charge by first contacting the environment department located in the premises of the former hospital with the vehicle registration document. . Contact 0590 52 27 30 or 0690 88 69 29. The ravines will be cleaned during July and August.

Individuals and businesses who will join this effort are asked to sort green waste, sheets and pieces of wood, before transporting them to the Grandes Cayes ecosite. This pre-sorting is important because it will then facilitate the treatment of waste.
