Tallinn Waste Centre and MTÜ Information Centre for Sustainable Renovation are opening a repair workshop in Pääsküla waste treatment plant today, where customers can repair various items which require welding, riveting, gluing, soldering or other means of repair under the direction of skilled masters.

Next week, from 21-27 August, people residing in Tallinn according to the population register can drop off bulky waste, such as unusable furniture, bicycles and baby prams, at the city's waste transfer stations for free.

Since the beginning of this year, Tallinn's night buses have been operating year-round. In addition to the four routes tested last year, two new routes to Pääsküla and Viimsi have been added. In January, approximately 4,400 people used the night buses, averaging 1,100 passengers each weekend.

During this year's final free large waste disposal week from November 20-26, Tallinn's waste treatment plants received seven times more large waste than in a typical week of November. Throughout the year, residents brought a total of 5,592.17 cubic meters of waste to the waste treatment plants, equivalent to approximately 70 truckloads of large waste.

During the free bulky waste disposal week on 21-27 August, seven times more bulky waste was brought to waste stations than on an average August week.

From Saturday, 1 April, Tallinn’s waste treatment facilities will start following a summer work schedule which means that the business hours will be extended during weekdays.
