Register collection of paper waste

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.
