Garden Rubbish Collection

As you know we have recently experienced some major problems with the Collection of rubbish and especially with garden rubbish.

It would seem that this is due to the fact that the town hall has now decided to put in place the system of which they inform you last year (the green leaflet) in order to guarantee greater efficiency in the collection of rubbish.

As per this new system, garden rubbish should be placed in closed bags when possible (the branches of the palm tree do not have to go in plastic bags) and deposited into the special containers to avoid smells and mess. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD GARDEN RUBBISH BE LEFT ON THE STREET AS THE COMMUNITY COULD BE FINED (we are talking of fines from 1.000€ to 3.000€ if not more).

You will remember that the Costa was split into 3 zones with a timetable for the collection. (Please see below)

The pruning collection will now be as per the leaflet schedule, which means that you will only be authorised to leave up to 1.000L pruning on the pavement in rubbish bags. You can only deposit your garden rubbish on the pavement the day prior to the scheduled collection day of your zone, and you will have to inform the town council the day before collection that you have left pruning there.

If your pruning exceeds the authorised 1.000L, then you will have to take it to the special collection point at Calle Cabo Turinán in Lomas de Cabo Roig and will have to deposit it in the corresponding containers.

Thanks for your collaboration
