Burgenland started in 2025 with a new mix collection in the yellow sack

From 2025 a new disposable pawn system will be introduced in Austria, and the mix collection for the yellow sack starts at the same time in Burgenland. This system aims to improve recycling and promote environmental protection. According to Andreas Pertl of "Austria collects", the "yellow formula" is simply explained: light packaging plus metal packaging minus deposit - this is how the new regulation works.

The responsible persons of the Burgenland waste association (BMV), including Managing Director Johann Janisch and chairman Michael Lampl, have announced these significant developments. Lampl emphasizes that by introducing the disposable deposit, the basics for high -quality recycling should be created. This step is not only crucial for improving recycling quotas, but also of central importance for the protection of resources and the environment.

Details on the new regulation

The mix collection will be implemented in Burgenland next year. This system is expected to result in extensive restructuring of waste disposal. The new provisions reduce the complexity of the disposal process and give the citizens clearer guidelines on how to dispose of their packaging.

The Burgenland waste association has tried to inform the public about the new regulations. The idea behind this change is to sensitize the participants to recycling and ensure that valuable materials do not end up unnecessarily in landfills. "With the disposable deposit and the new yellow formula, we are on the right track to get the value of our resources," continued Lampl.
