Get a free biowaste bin
20.09.2023
Earlier this year, we provided biowaste bins and paper bags in few of our housing complexes. We received tenant feedback that the tenant benefit could be picked up elsewhere too. So now tenants can get a free biowaste bin and bags from our office!
Our office assists customers by appointment only, so choose a time that suits you from our reservation calendar. Book an appointment from our website and pick up your tenant benefit!
The biowaste bins are made from recycled materials, and we also provide waterproof paper bags. The bins are designed to ensure air ventilation and let the biowaste dry out. In this way, biowaste does not cause any unpleasant odors.

Change the bag every few days. You can use any similar-sized paper bags in the bio-waste bin. There are limited number of bins available. They will be distributed for as long as we have them.
