Trash Talk: Osnabrück Waste Collection Changes due to May Day

Garbage collection delayed for a day starting from the 1st of May

Gear up, Osnabrück! 'Cause May Day's comin', and it's throwin' a wrench in your regular trash pickup schedule. Instead of the usual bash on Thursday, May 1, you'll be hangin' onto your waste a day longer. Yep, no waste collection on the first, it's booked for Friday, and Saturday, May 3, is the big day.

But don't fret, after May 5, it's back to business as usual in all districts. Just swing by the waste collection calendar on the official site to see the precise pickup schedule for your area.

Now, if you're a recycling enthusiast or just toss green waste about, take note: Recycling centers at St.-Florian-Straße, Limberger Straße, and Ellerstraße/Knollstraße, the 15 green waste sites, and the waste management center at Piesberg will be closed on May 1. So, keep those recyclables and compostables piled up until the next day.

Despite the ongoing trash talk about Osnabrück's waste collection changes, respite comes as things return to normal after May 5. However, on May 1, remember to hold onto your recyclables and green waste, as the recycling centers at St.-Florian-Straße, Limberger Straße, and Ellerstraße/Knollstraße, green waste sites, and the waste management center at Piesberg will be closed.
