The waste containers and the yellow recycling bags must be put out at the side of the road at 7:00 AM on the collection day.

In wide areas of the urban area, we employ modern waste collecting vehicles for low-cost, automatic collection. In this area, the containers are marked with a red arrow on the lid. Make particularly sure that the containers are put out correctly, with the wheels towards the house and not behind parked cars. The lid should be closed so that nothing is spilt when emptying

There are also many glass and textile containers in the urban area. In addition, there are two large recycling yards where larger quantities of recyclables or even hazardous waste can usually be deposited free of charge. For hazardous material, the hazmat-mobile also goes en-route in the urban area twice a year.
