  • Paper and cardboard
  • Glass
  • Plastic

Medicines, dangerous refuses, domestic appliances, clothes and cumbersome waste don't follow the traditional mode of disposal: there are specific containers and bodies charged to their disposal.

So, avoid throwing them in the unsorted waste container, get informed instead about the collecting and recycling mode of these particular materials.

How to recycle at home

Beside the garbage collection, there are many ideas you can adopt to reuse waste materials.

So here are some ideas to recycle at home, saving money and contributing to the planet's welfare.

Don't throw away your old clothes
