What Does Borla Mean in Ghana?
In Ghana, people often use the word borla to mean rubbish or refuse: the waste we put in a bin and need taken away. You may also hear garbage, refuse, rubbish or trash used for the same thing.
Borla, garbage and refuse: same idea, different words
Whichever word you use, the service you need is the same: someone collects your household or business waste on a schedule so it does not pile up at home or at work.
