Waste: Dispose of household waste
Performance specification
The collection and disposal of waste from private households and other disposal waste from other sources is the responsibility of the public waste management authorities (the municipalities belonging to the districts, the independent cities and the districts). Regulations on the respective waste disposal system and individual provisions are laid down in the statutes. These include information on waste fees, waste containers (prescribed size of the waste bin, ordering options), waste calendars (collection intervals, route schedules of the hazardous waste collection vehicles), collection and delivery systems for various types of waste (e.g. green waste, e-waste, paper), disposal of organic waste, bulky waste disposal and the types of waste permitted for disposal in the grey bin.
