Changes to waste disposal in Schwerin: How to stay informed!

Schwerin prefers garbage collection! Due to the upcoming Christmas holidays, the collection dates for household waste, organic waste and recyclables are undergoing important changes this week. The first holiday falls on a Wednesday, meaning waste collection will be brought forward from December 25th to Christmas Eve, December 24th. Households must therefore have their waste containers ready for collection on Monday, December 23rd, with pre-emptying starting on Saturday, December 21st. Given the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, the city emphasizes the importance of putting out trash cans in a timely manner to ensure a smooth pickup process snaktuell.de reported.

Further adjustments to the garbage collection plan

But that's not all: collection for Boxing Day, which falls on December 26th, has also been postponed. This collection will now take place on Friday 27th December, while rubbish collection for the following Saturday 28th December will also be affected. The New Year's collection, originally scheduled for January 1st, will be moved to Thursday, January 2nd, meaning collections in the following days will also be pushed back one day.

The waste calendar as an indispensable aid

In order to always keep an overview, experts recommend keeping a personalized waste calendar. Information on the exact collection dates is either available online or can be requested directly from the relevant municipality abfall-info.de explains. Many municipalities already offer digital solutions that make it easier for citizens not to miss a pickup appointment. Using apps like Garbage Alarm Clock, you can set up automatic reminders for trash disposal, which is particularly helpful for forgetful people. A well-managed waste calendar ensures that both normal waste types and specialist disposals can be carried out smoothly - especially during the busy Christmas period, where every day counts!
