CHENNAI: The Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) collected 36.64 metric tonne of waste, including old sofas, mattresses, wooden furniture, and clothes, from 105 locations on Saturday (July 25) based on prior requests.
The waste was transported by 43 vehicles, and incinerated at the Kodungaiyur plant.
Launched in October 2025, this weekly waste collection initiative allows residents to dispose of bulky household waste safely.
