The eco-bus continues to operate in a number of regional centres. It enables residents to dispose of hazardous waste free of charge at a location convenient for them – all they need to do is check the timetable and bring this specific waste in an undamaged condition or in packaging, depending on the type.
As is customary, EcoPolitic has compiled information on the eco-bus routes and stops.
