Starting today, April 1, the opening hours of Tallinn recycling stations will switch to summer schedule. Pääsküla, Rahumäe, Paljassaare and Pärnamäe...
This weekend, 21-22 May, residents of Haabersti, Mustamäe, Nõmme and Pirita will be able to dispose of both hazardous waste and reusable items at a collection stop near their homes.
This weekend, Tallinners can get involved in a series of community clean-ups and help make the city cleaner as part of the Let's Do It campaign. Helping hands are welcome in Põhja-Tallinn, Haabersti, Kesklinn, Nõmme and Kristiine districts, and activities take place on Friday and Saturday.
Although bulky waste is covered by the organised waste collection scheme and need to be handed over on a separate agreement with your waste collector, Tallinn residents will again be able to drop off bulky waste free of charge at all waste collection stations in Tallinn for a week (9-15 May) as part of Environment Month.
All four waste stations in Tallinn are open every day from the beginning of April to provide smoother service. The stations switch to summer operation on 1 April, which also means longer opening hours.
Organised for the first time, the free bulky waste collection week resulted in ten times as much bulky waste collected at Tallinn's waste collection stations than during the usual week in March. A total of 1 472 cubic metres of bulky waste was collected at the stations during the week, up from 125 cubic metres a week earlier.
People living in Tallinn according to the population register will be able to dispose of bulky waste such as furniture, bicycles and prams free of charge at the city's waste stations.
The City of Tallinn, in cooperation with the Uuskasutuskeskus/Reuse Centre, has opened a recycling room at the Paljassaare waste station, where people can bring items that have become redundant at home, but are in good working order and fit for use.
In the business sector during the past year, supporting commercial operators affected by COVID-19 restrictions was a main priority for Tallinn. Various circular economy projects were also launched.
