How to sort your waste

Organic waste · brown bin

Leftover food, fruit and vegetable peelings, used coffee grounds, tea bags, eggshells and soiled paper napkins. Use compostable bags.

Collection in Cavalese: Monday and Thursday

Paper and cardboard · yellow bin

Newspapers, sheets of paper, boxes and clean cardboard. Put them in loose and flatten boxes. Food-soiled paper does not belong here.

Plastic packaging and cans · blue bin

Plastic bottles and packaging containers, yoghurt pots, cans, aluminium trays and foil. Empty the packaging. This collection is for packaging, not every plastic item.

Collection days and information for guests

Ask your accommodation contact which containers to use and where to take your waste. Check the Cavalese calendar for collection days.

Common questions

What about pizza boxes?

Clean cardboard goes with paper; greasy or food-soiled parts go with organic waste.

Does all plastic go in the blue bin?

No: the blue bin is for plastic packaging and cans. Check before disposing of other plastic objects.

Where are the bins?

Ask your accommodation contact which containers to use and where to find them.
