Waste separation
Coarse garden waste is also known as pruning waste or prunings. With this initiative, the municipality and ROVA aim to ensure as much coarse garden waste as possible is separated. Prunings can be partially composted and partially used for generating sustainable energy. Additionally, this prevents prunings from ending up in residual waste.
To produce high-quality compost, it is important that only coarse garden waste (pruning waste) is disposed of. If, for example, sand, soil, or railway sleepers are mixed with the coarse garden waste, it becomes unusable for compost production. Contaminated loads will therefore not be accepted free of charge.
