Papierabfälle Abholung Anmeldung

You can register the collection of your paper waste via a paper garbage can from your private household.

Paper and cardboard are very important recyclable materials that are recycled and returned to a cycle - they should therefore be collected separately from residual waste. Paper and cardboard can be disposed of in the paper garbage can or bundled and placed on the street. Paper garbage cans with a volume of 120, 240 and 1100 liters are available.

The paper garbage can or an appropriate collection system can be used for

• Newspapers, magazines, books, brochures
• writing paper and paper and cardboard packaging.

Do not put in the paper garbage can:

• Wallpaper, soiled paper or cardboard packaging (e.g. pizza boxes or used tissues) and coated paper - all of this belongs in the residual waste.

Collection takes place every 14 days. The dates can be found in your Bremen waste calendar. Please put the paper garbage can or paper bundles out the day before collection from 6 p.m. at the earliest, but no later than 6 a.m. on the day of collection.

The disposal of paper waste from private households is the responsibility of Bremer Stadtreinigung.

If you use the bundle collection, please observe the following rules for correct bundling:

• It is best to collect in cardboard boxes or paper bags (no plastic), which are tightly sealed within themselves (if necessary with adhesive tape or parcel tape)
• Each bundle should weigh a maximum of 5 kg
• The boxes should not be larger than 1 m (length x width) and should be provided separately from the yellow bag.
