This week, from 8-14 May, people residing in Tallinn according to the population register can drop off bulky waste, such as broken and unusable furniture, bicycles and baby prams, at the city's waste transfer stations for free.
From November 20 to 26, the fourth annual large waste disposal campaign of the year will take place. Residents of Tallinn can dispose of their large waste items free of charge at local waste treatment plants.
Starting from November 1, Tallinn's waste treatment plants will switch to a winter schedule. All four waste treatment plants - in Pääsküla, Rahumäe, Paljassaare, and Pärnamäe - will continue to be open seven days a week, but their opening hours will be shorter during the autumn-winter period.
During the free waste collection week, almost three times as much bulky waste was brought to Tallinn’s waste collection stations than during a regular week in November.
Tallinn is continuing the restoration of Pääsküla Bog. Over ten weekends, residents are invited to help block drainage ditches in the bog to raise the groundwater level and support the return of the unique wetland ecosystem.
From May 12 to 18, residents of Tallinn (as registered in the population register) can once again bring their bulky waste—such as unusable furniture, bicycles, or baby strollers—to the city’s waste stations and the Lilleküla Circular Economy Centre free of charge.
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.
On Saturday, November 30, the Tallinn Urban Environment and Public Works Department, Nõmme District Administration, and event leaders thanked volunteers at the Nõmme Maja for their contributions to restoring Pääsküla Bog during the past season.
