The goal of this service is to increase the percentage of selective collection in the municipality. As a result, all locations now have containers for all 5 fractions. Collection is done by 2 collectors with side loading and one collector with rear loading for areas that are difficult to access. This service is complemented by the commercial paper/cardboard waste, bulk waste and green waste (big-bags) collections. Bulk waste and green waste collections are scheduled via phone calls.
The street cleaning service is done using one suction sweeper, one broom sweeper and one light electric vehicle. This equipment is used alongside manual sweeping personnel, whose objective is to clean streets, squares and public spaces of the municipality, empty bins, etc.
The service also includes two education professionals who carry out continued awareness-raising and public education campaigns regarding proper recycling practices and the civilised use of public spaces.
