Dispose of organic waste correctly in summer
Especially in the warmer months, it is important to dispose of organic waste correctly and as dry as possible. Kitchen paper, newspaper scraps or egg cartons can help to bind excess moisture in the garbage can. The garbage can should be kept as shady as possible and cleaned regularly. Another tip: line the gaps with cardboard to prevent the waste from sticking. Important: Even though many so-called "compostable" bags are available, they do not belong in the organic waste garbage can. These bags, even if they appear to be biodegradable, are often made of materials that do not fully decompose in the composting process and cause problems in the facilities. AVL therefore asks that you use paper bags instead or wrap moist biowaste in newspaper.
