In Mykolaiv, municipal workers are urging residents to collect plastic separately and throw it into mesh containers

The municipal enterprise «Mykolaivkomuntrans» appealed to residents of Mykolaiv asking them to sort their waste and place plastic items in special mesh bins installed in courtyards and at waste collection sites.

The company reported that mesh containers for plastic are located in all districts of Mykolaiv, and the waste collected from them is picked up daily, which allows the plastic to be sent for further recycling.

«Every plastic bottle thrown into a separate collection container gets a chance to be recycled and reused. This helps reduce the load on the landfill and make our city cleaner», — reported KP «Mykolaivkomuntrans».

Municipal workers emphasize that separate collection of valuable resource fractions reduces the volume of waste going to the landfill and helps improve the city’s sanitary condition.
