Abfall; Entsorgung

The administrative districts and independent cities in Bavaria are responsible for waste disposal in their area. If you have any questions about the disposal facilities (location, opening hours, etc.) or the disposal fees, please contact your district or city.

Many types of waste are collected separately as recyclables. What these are in detail, how they are collected and what ultimately belongs to residual waste is regulated in the Recycling Management Act (KrWG) and in the municipal waste statutes.

The waste advisory services of the municipalities (districts, independent cities) or waste associations can provide information on this. These are responsible for waste disposal within the framework of waste legislation and provide collection and delivery systems. The focus here is on measures to support material recycling.

• Collection systems include waste collection, the yellow garbage can, the paper and green waste/biodegradable waste garbage can and the yellow bag, if it is collected.
• Bring systems are recycling islands (especially for glass, metal, textiles) and recycling centers.

The more convenient collection is for the citizen, i.e. closer to the household, the greater the collection volume. The greater the individual's knowledge of correct separation and awareness of this responsibility, the purer the collection as a prerequisite for high-quality recycling.

You are registered at your place of residence.

The costs are based on the municipal fee statutes.

Most of the responsible authorities issue waste calendars. These contain the collection dates and types of collection.

Waste disposal usually takes place on specific dates.
