Pillar 3

Clean-ups led by the people who live there.

Join Mazilinda community clean-ups and waste pickup days across Nairobi. Every kilogram of waste earns merchandise or Taka points to spend at partner stores.

Community waste pickup days

Bring your waste. Leave with something back.

Mazilinda organises community waste pickup days: announced dates and drop-off points where residents bring the waste from their homes. Every kilogram is weighed on the spot and turned into merchandise or Taka points on the Mazilinda app — because a community that sees value in waste will keep coming back.

Step 1

Check the date and point

Every pickup day is announced ahead of time with its drop-off point — a school ground, a church hall or a designated community point.

Step 2

Bring your sorted waste

Plastics, paper, metal and clean organic waste — sorted at home makes everything move faster and earn more.

Step 3

Weigh it on the spot

Our team weighs every contribution in the open, so everyone can see exactly what their waste earned.

Step 4

Take your reward

Every kilogram earns merchandise on the spot, or Taka points on the Mazilinda app to spend at our partner supermarkets and stores.

Every 1 kg of sorted waste earns merchandise on the spot — or Taka points on the Mazilinda app, redeemable at any of our partner supermarkets and stores.
