The Greater Chennai Corporation has seen a 50% increase in garbage collection post cyclone Michaung, collecting 9,000 tonnes of waste a day now.

The corporation is struggling to handle newer waste like sofas and bed mattresses as material recovery centres are not working. Hiring ragpickers could help unclog transfer stations and the dumpyard.
