Waste management
Waste management
As a partner for citizens, municipalities belonging to the district and commercial enterprises, the specialist waste management service of the Waldeck-Frankenberg district stands for environmentally conscious, resource-saving disposal and recycling of waste from around 170,000 people. It also collects and removes waste containing hazardous substances. This is collected twice a year as part of a mobile collection service.
Avoidance and recycling are the goals of modern waste management by the specialist service. A good two thirds of all waste from households is recycled in Waldeck-Frankenberg. Currently, more than twelve different types of recyclable materials are collected here. For years, biowaste as well as tree and shrub cuttings have been processed in the district's own composting plants. Furthermore, an acceptance facility has also been created for soil and construction waste as well as waste wood.
