Chaos in green waste containers: rubbish causes a commotion at the recycling center!

On November 18, 2025, attention will be drawn to the current situation surrounding the green waste containers next to the recycling center in Mintraching. These containers are intended exclusively for green waste and it is strictly forbidden to place rubbish or other non-permitted materials. The municipality appeals to users to adhere diligently to the requirements. The containers should be used during the recycling center’s opening hours.

An increase in the number of users was noted due to the closure of the district road. However, this situation has led to unacceptable disposal practices. Observations show that some citizens deposit green waste next to the containers and even on the glass containers. The building yard has already taken steps to improve the situation: on Friday the areas were cleared and gravelled, but by Monday the situation was messy again. Those responsible would like to thank the users for their understanding and cooperation.

The correct disposal of green waste

Green waste is often created during gardening work, such as trimming hedges, falling leaves or removing dead plants. Garden owners and hobby gardeners are often faced with the challenge of disposing of waste efficiently because their own compost heap or organic waste bin does not always offer enough space. Containers for green waste are a practical solution that CURANTO delivers directly to your home in various sizes.

The collected material is used in an environmentally friendly manner, for example as compost or energy source. Efficiency is of the utmost importance for disposal in gardening and landscaping. The containers make the process much easier. CURANTO offers containers nationwide on time and booking is quick and easy. Prices vary depending on the container size and cleanliness of the waste, with the common sizes being 3, 7 and 10 cubic meters.

When it comes to using the containers, it is important to keep a few tips in mind. Larger branches should be shredded, wet leaves are recommended to be allowed to dry, and a solid surface is preferred. Seasonal planning is also relevant: In spring, a lot of green waste is generated when pruning bushes and fruit trees, while in autumn large amounts of leaves and shrub residues have to be collected.

Alternative disposal options

Private compost heaps or organic waste bins can be used for smaller amounts of garden waste. Many recycling centers also offer free collection of garden waste, although acceptance is often limited in terms of quantity and time. In addition, the levy is generally only permitted for citizens and businesses from the respective municipality. It is therefore advisable to check the current conditions of the local recycling centers.

In general, private disposal of green waste is usually free of charge. Those who wish to use containers should be aware that the regulations must be strictly adhered to in order not to unnecessarily pollute the environment.
