City of Salzburg sends old garbage vehicles to Ukraine to help!

Salzburg, Österreich - The city of Salzburg again shows solidarity with Ukraine by providing five decommissioned vehicles from the waste service. On December 17, 2024, Vice Mayor Florian Kreibich handed over the vehicles - including two platform trolleys and three press waste vehicles - to the aid organization "With Ukraine!". These vehicles, which can no longer be used in Austria due to their age and poor technical condition, are to be used in Ukraine according to the necessary, cost -effective repairs. Kreibich emphasized the importance of support for the needy civilian population, which has been dependent on help since the beginning of the war in February 2022, as well as with Meinzirk.at was reported.

This donation is part of a sustainable initiative of the city of Salzburg, which donated twelve other vehicles to Ukraine two years ago. The donation not only extends the lifespan of the vehicles, but also provided urgently needed support in the form of work equipment. The vehicles are transported by volunteers who ensure that the vehicles get to Ukraine safely and promptly. Representatives of the Ukrainian community also thanked the donation and emphasized how important these vehicles are for the help on site, such as reported.
