Ecopoints
Ecopoints
are meant for household waste
such as
glass, small metal objects, paper
and
batteries. Some Ecopoints accept
cardboard.
Ecopoints are located near
markets and
shopping centres and in small
house
areas.
Recycling stations
Recycling
stations are supervised receiving
stations
that accept bulky household waste,
such as
sorted construction waste, sized
textiles,
plastic, scrap metal and hazardous
waste.
Hazardous waste
Hazardous
waste is received and sorted
at
Ekorosk´s central storage and later
transported
elsewhere for proper
treatment. The
regional waste storage also
serves
small and medium-sized businesses.
I was impressed
by the modernity and efficiency of this plant that allows 94%of waste
recycling.
