This closing time ensures understanding among residents as it is part of the compost site's usual practice. The next closure period will last from December 14, 2025 to January 11, 2026. No deliveries of green waste or services are possible during this time.

The winter closure of the compost site in Sarching follows the general regulations in the Regensburg district, where the compost sites will be reopened from March 1, 2025.
