Sorted waste collection

KOSIT a.s. started to implement sorted waste collection in Košice in 2002. Since that year, the number of containers for sorted collection has increased several times and currently the following commodities are sorted in Košice within the framework of extended producer responsibility: paper, glass, plastics, metal packaging and beverage cartons.

The collection and disposal of these sorted waste components is the responsibility of the respective producer responsibility organisation, which also fully finances it (the costs are not included in the waste charge, which is paid by the residents). You can read more about the rules on waste sorting at this link.

In addition to basic commodities, it is possible to sort e.g. electrical waste, batteries, clothes, and other components, which can be taken by residents to 5 collection yards within the city of Košice, or other collection points.
