WHAT TO DO WITH OLD MOBILE PHONES, REFRIGERATORS, ETC.?
ELEKTRO-ADE EXPLAINS THE PROCESS AND HELPS YOU FIND YOUR NEAREST COLLECTION CENTRE!
Not even the smallest electrical appliances and electronic devices should be thrown in the household rubbish – they’re far too valuable! “Small devices” include any appliance or device with an edge length of less than 50 cm. When properly collected and professionally processed, they are a source of many important raw materials.Weiterlesen

What do I do with a broken washing machine or an old refrigerator?

All of them are free for consumers – and good for our environment.Weiterlesen

Your mobile phone has served you well for years,
but now it’s old and outdated.
When properly collected, old mobile phones can still be reused.
Through proper recycling of broken mobile phones, lots of valuable raw materials can be recovered.Weiterlesen

Have the lights gone out? Energy-saving bulbs and fluorescent tubes contain mercury, so they don’t belong in the bin with household rubbish. Instead, they must be separated from other rubbish and protected from breaking, then dropped off at collection centres (also known as “Mistplätze” or “Recyclinghöfe” in Austria).Weiterlesen

Batteries contain a variety of valuable raw materials – and hazardous materials too.
Therefore, they must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
Instead, they should be returned to the shop or to your local
collection centre.Weiterlesen

Municipal collection sites (waste collection sites, recycling centers) are an important part of municipal waste disposal, making them critical system infrastructure. For this reason, they remain in operation even during the pandemic lockdown to ensure safe and orderly disposal of waste.
Complying with safety precautions
However, strict hygiene and safety rules must also be followed when visiting the collection sites. The current coronavirus protection ordinance requires the wearing of masks (disposable or cloth masks) or other close-fitting scarves or cloths that cover the mouth and nose. Both customers and employees are required to wear masks in indoor areas. In outdoor areas, the wearing of masks is recommended, especially if it is not possible to maintain a safe distance from others. In general, the social distancing rules and general hygiene principles apply here as well.
Please behave responsibly. To keep your time at the collection sites as short as possible, we recommend that you presort your waste. By separating your waste at home, you will finish your visit to the collection site that much more quickly. This minimizes the risk of infection for everyone involved and allows the sites to remain in operation.

Damit haben wir Alle schon lange angefangen*zumindest die Menschen, die des Denkens fähig sind*
Die Sonne grüßt uns nun wieder häufiger. Ein guter Grund die Unternehmungen wieder mehr nach draußen zu verlagern.
Denke jedoch daran, deine Elektronik stets vor direkter Sonneneinstrahlung zu schützen. Denn besonders bei heißen Temperaturen kann der Lithium-Akku in deiner Elektronik geschädigt werden, sich aufwölben oder im schlimmsten Fall aufgrund von Beschädigungen anfangen zu brennen. ... MehrWeniger
