DCLM Kwadukuza

General information

We at DCLM Pride ourselves in putting the Environment first. Whilst our core business is a H:H Landfill, based in Stanger KZN, we consider ourselves passionate ambassadors for the Environment: Nothing is committed to the earth without first asking our Client's the three most important questions:
1. Reduce?
2. Reuse?
3. Recycle?
If there is no alternative but to landfill, our stringent classification & treatment procedures ensure that any waste stream that is landfilled in the Kwadukuza H:H Landfill is done so in strict accordance with International Best Practise, as well as local and National Environmental Legislation.

- Total Land Area of 140.6 hectares
- 49.2 hectares of this is permitted for H:H /Class A landfilling.
- Total Airspace of up to 20 million cubic meters, to be divided into 13 separate cells.
- As of October 2014, cell
1 with an airspace of 700 thousand cubic meters has been fully exploited and temporarily capped.
- Cell 2, with an expected airspace of 1.3 million cubic meters, is now being exploited.
- The company anticipates to start the building of cell 3 towards 2019 with a start of operation the same year.
- DCLM operates the landfill according to the highest international waste management standards, by applying the latest innovation in landfill engineering and science.
