organic green waste
green organic waste comes from gardens, small pruning and leaf cleaning. you may schedule the collection of this waste with the Guimarães municipality or deposit it directly in one of the municipality’s ecocentres.
how to separate?
green organic waste in small amounts can be put in the organic bin or in the composter. big amounts, however (as, for example, grass cuttings from the garden) may have to be delivered or scheduled to deliver at the ecocentre.
