Clean city, clean future: Holzminden starts garbage sponsorship!

In the district of Holzminden, an exciting new project is launched: the search for committed garbage sponsors! This initiative aims to raise awareness of sustainable use of resources and avoiding waste. The waste management Holzminden starts with a year -round campaign, in which citizens regularly, every two, four or eight weeks, can free certain areas of garbage and rubbish. Whether park, street or playground - the choice lies with the participants!

Waste consultant Jessine Lüke-Welling emphasizes the importance of the campaign: "It is very important to us to offer a year-round campaign. Correct waste separation is of central importance all year round." The environment not only harms the environment in summer, but also in winter. The waste management provides the garbage sponsors free of charge, gripping tongs, gloves and garbage bags. The filled sacks can then be handed over at different collection points free of charge.

Important information for garbage sponsors

Caution! Certain waste such as batteries, electrical appliances or metals are not allowed in the garbage bags. These can be submitted free of charge at the recycling places. Pollutants must be brought to the pollutant mobile, while the lower waste authority takes care of larger, illegally disposed waste. Lüke-Welling hopes for numerous participants who are enthusiastic about this important topic and want to actively contribute to cleanliness in the district. Registration as a garbage sponsor is made using a form on the website of the Holzminden waste management.
