Local Tips

How Do the Bins Work

Burgas has a color-coded waste management system. It’s important to know how to separate waste properly:

      • Blue bins: Paper and cardboard.
      • Green bins: Glass.
      • Yellow bins: Plastics and metals.
      • Brown bins: Organic waste.

Recycling Depots

There are several recycling depots in Burgas where you can take materials that can’t be disposed of in regular recycling bins (e.g., electronic waste, hazardous materials). [Insert Map of Recycling Depots

Collection Services

These are companies that collect and process recyclable materials. You can contact them to arrange the collection of larger items like metal, paper, and plastics for recycling.

How to Compost

Composting organic waste at home is easy and helps reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills. Set up a compost bin in your garden or on your balcony, and compost food scraps like vegetable peels, coffee grounds, and eggshells. Make sure to balance “greens” (like food scraps) with “browns” (like dried leaves or cardboard).
