Information regarding the proper handling of packaging waste

In order to facilitate specific processing, all packaging waste should be collected selectively, divided into their individual fractions:

PLASTIC PACKAGING WASTE

METAL PACKAGING WASTE (ALUMINUM/STEEL)

PAPER AND CARDBOARD PACKAGING WASTE

GLASS PACKAGING WASTE

MULTI-MATERIAL PACKAGING WASTE (E.G. LIQUID FOOD CARTONS)

Packaging should be empty and, if possible, crushed to reduce its volume. Packaging waste should be handed over divided into fractions (in accordance with the adopted regulations for maintaining cleanliness and order in the municipality) at the nearest collection point established by the municipality (containers for selective collection) or at PSZOK points (selective municipal waste collection points). Information about the location of PSZOK and waste acceptance hours can be found on the municipality's website.
