Kharkiv residents can visit the sorting station from 11:00 to 15:00

On Thursday, June 23, the Kharkiv eco-hub will have a sorting zone and a reuse zone, so residents were urged to bring recyclables and unnecessary items for those in need.

The opening of the eco-hub for visitors was announced on the Facebook page Kharkiv Zero Vaste .

Kharkiv residents can visit the sorting station from 11:00 to 15:00.

"The list of recyclables is still much shorter than it was before the war, but changes are gradually possible," the organization's Facebook page warned.

Accept ONLY:

  • paper,
  • glass,
  • aluminum jar and other metal (except tin),
  • PET bottle (drinks only)

Echohab continues to provide humanitarian assistance.

Take things like this:

  • seasonal clothes;
  • seasonal shoes;
  • utensils and household items;
  • blankets, pillows, bedding, etc.

We will remind that Kharkiv ecohab Kharkiv Zero Waste , who collected secondary raw materials before the war, in April began distributing the collected items to citizens who need them most.
