Garis collect more than 200 tons of rubbish from the sands of Copacabana, after the Madonna concert

Comlurb removed 287 tons of waste from Copacabana beach, after the mega cleaning operation for the Madonna concert. Teams of Zero Waste inspectors imposed 27 fines for irregular disposal of small waste and irregular advertising. The mega operation involved 1,518 street cleaners divided into three work shifts.

The cleaning included the main cross streets of the neighborhood, including washing the streets with recycled water. From 10pm onwards the service was intensified, and the entire beach and surrounding areas were clean in the early hours of this Sunday.

The company made 1,500 240-liter containers available on the sand and sidewalk of Av. Atlântica and main access roads, including subway stations, to dispose of its waste correctly.

Comlurb had more than 65 vehicles, 18 of which were exclusively for hydraulic cleaning with reused water and 38 pieces of equipment, with ten tractors that sifted the sand before and after the show.
