waste transport

When it comes to collecting, sorting and transporting waste, a distinction is made between systematic and systemless approaches. The kirbside collection of bundled waste paper is an example of the latter. On the other hand various container systems are used for waste collection. Whereas residual waste is collected in gray containers, separate collection systems are used for a range of waste.

Transfrontier shipments of non-green-listed wastes are subject to a prior written notification and consent procedure. This also applies to wastes for which a permit is required.
