A new wood repair workshop will be built at Paljassaare waste station in Tallinn (Paljassaare põik 5) alongside existing reuse rooms. This initiative follows circular economy principles, making the waste station more environmentally friendly and user-oriented.

The City of Tallinn is developing a modern urban space on Mustjõe and Värvi streets, including new safe pedestrian and cycling paths, traffic-calming measures, greenery, and a recreational area.

To ensure environmentally friendly disposal of old Christmas trees, Tallinn has opened 83 collection points where residents can drop off their trees free of charge. Trees can also be taken to waste stations or have them picked up by the local waste management service.

If you wish to dispose of unnecessary items at home before the end of the year, you are welcome to visit Tallinn Circular Economy Center’s waste stations and the Lilleküla Circular Economy Center before the Christmas holidays.

Construction of the Lasnamäe Circular Economy Center is set to begin soon, following a construction agreement signed by Tallinn Property Department, Tallinn Circular Economy Center, and Fund Ehitus OÜ. This will be Tallinn's second purpose-built circular economy center, aimed at helping residents manage waste closer to home and in a more environmentally conscious way.

From November 18 to November 24, the Tallinn Circular Economy Center is organizing another campaign, allowing city residents to dispose of bulky waste at city waste stations free of charge.

Starting January 1, 2025, the per-cubic-meter price for biodegradable garden waste and tree branches at Tallinn waste stations will be reduced to a third of its current rate; however, free garden waste drop-off will no longer be available.

As of Friday, November 1, the waste stations of the Tallinn Circular Economy Center (Tallinna Ringmajanduskeskus) will switch to autumn-winter hours, meaning shorter operating hours. This seasonal schedule will be in effect until March 31, 2025.

On October 16, the Lilleküla Circular Economy Center (located at Mustjõe 40) was officially opened, marking the first of its kind in both Tallinn and Estonia. The center offers residents the opportunity to sort their waste and repair items.
