Collection yards and collection points

Full Service Drop-Off Disposal and Recycling Centres and Collection Points is a secure area operated by staff, designated for disposal of a wide range of waste. To establish such a centre, the Regional Council permission is required. The Council also approves the operational regulations and the types of waste that can be accepted. Both local individuals and local businesses may dispose of their waste at these centres. In some cases, non-residents and businesses from other municipalities can deposit their waste by agreement. No fee is charged for municipal waste from individuals. This may not apply to non-municipal waste and business waste. However, we recommend getting informed about the waste disposal conditions as they may vary in different municipalities.

A collection point is a variant of a recycling centre which doesn’t need to be authorised by the Regional Council. At these points, the waste disposal is limited to municipal waste from residents of the respective municipality and  businesses contractually involved in the municipality’s system.
