Burgenland starts 2025 with a new mix collection in the yellow bag

Burgenland starts 2025 with a new mix collection in the yellow bag
From 2025, a new one-way deposit system will be introduced in Austria, and the mix collection for the yellow bag will start at the same time in Burgenland. This system aims to improve recycling and promote environmental protection. According to Andreas Pertl from “ÖSTERREICH SAMMELT”, the “yellow formula” is simply explained: lightweight packaging plus metal packaging minus the deposit – this is how the new regulation works.
Those responsible at the Burgenland Waste Association (BMV), including managing director Johann Janisch and chairman Michael Lampl, have announced these significant developments. Lampl emphasizes that the introduction of the one-way deposit is intended to create the basis for high-quality recycling. This step is not only crucial for improving recycling rates, but also central to protecting resources and the environment.
Details about the new regulation
The mix collection will be implemented in Burgenland next year. This system is expected to result in a major restructuring of waste management. The new regulations reduce the complexity of the disposal process and give citizens clearer guidelines on how to dispose of their packaging.
The Burgenland Waste Association has made every effort to inform the public about the new regulations. The idea behind this change is to raise awareness among participants about recycling and ensure that valuable materials do not end up in landfills unnecessarily. “With the one-way deposit and the new yellow formula, we are on the right track to preserving the value of our resources,” continued Lampl.
In summary, it can be said that the introduction of the new one-way deposit and the mixed collection in the yellow bag together play an important role in Burgenland's waste management. Those responsible are optimistic that these measures will not only increase the recycling rate, but also increase the population's awareness of sustainable practices.
