Waste disposal and collection Midi-Pyrénées

Waste collection in Nîmes is managed by Nîmes Métropole's Direction de la Collecte et du Traitement des Déchets Ménagers (DCTDM). Household waste and selective sorting are collected door-to-door by trucks belonging to service providers. Collection frequencies vary according to the typology of the sector, with household waste collected between 2 and 7 times a week and selective sorting between 1 and 2 times a week. For specific waste, there are waste collection centers where residents can drop it off.

What can be tabled in this cleanliness is: bulky items, non-vegetable oils, batteries, construction materials and rubble, plants, car batteries, household toxic waste (solvents, solvents, paints, tubes and neon lamps, electrical appliances and textiles). Attention: The staff will not necessarily help you unload your waste. Plan a friend for a sometimes inevitable hand: Sometimes you have to climb a few steps and, above all, lift the package to throw it into the bottle.

Selective sorting is a necessity for our environment. Everyone must make an effort, even if having two or three bins in the kitchen is a little binding. In theory, each building and house has two bins: green or yellow for dry recyclable materials such as bottles of water, milk, cans - clean - and another blue for the rest of the waste. For glass, there are several special columns, as well as columns for paper and cardboard. In order to complete the table, centres offer individuals the possibility of free disposal of certain waste, bulky - beds, sofas, sofas, furniture - and dangerous products - including gas.
