In a major step toward improving urban sanitation and waste management, Governor Kimani Wamatangi today officially launched a 12-cubic meter waste compactor, the latest addition to Kiambu County's efforts to modernize its waste collection systems.
The state-of-the-art compactor is equipped with a modern hydraulic system that enables on-site compression of waste, allowing it to transport significantly more garbage per trip than traditional trucks.
Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, Governor Wamatangi emphasized the county government's commitment to sustainable urban development and public health. "This compactor marks a new chapter in how we manage waste.
It's not just about collecting garbage, but doing so more efficiently, with reduced environmental impact and improved urban hygiene," he said.
