City residents can dispose of hazardous household waste so that it is not thrown into regular trash bins

Residents of Poltava, Lviv, and Khmelnytskyi can traditionally hand in used batteries, mercury lamps, and other hazardous household waste to mobile collection points—eco-buses.

The routes of the eco-buses have been published by local councils and municipal enterprises.

Lviv

As usual, the Lviv eco-bus will visit not only Lviv itself, but also the villages of Rudno and Bryukhovychi and the town of Vynnyky.

Local residents can hand in up to 10 used mercury lamps, up to 5 mercury thermometers, and up to 10 batteries to the mobile waste collection point.
