This year’s survey “Green City and Circular Economy,” conducted by Tallinn Strategic Management Office, reveals that residents highly value greenery and are increasingly engaging in environmentally friendly practices such as waste sorting, reuse, and growing plants.

The garden waste will be loaded onto trucks and taken to a treatment facility for composting, while branches will be shredded and used for fuel. This free drop-off option offers added convenience for residents who lack composting options at home or have waste volumes too large for home composting.
