BOFA - Bornholms Affaldssselskab

Of the total cost of waste collection, either from the household or an environmental organisation, only about 12% is dependent on the actual amount of waste from the individual household.

The rest of the price, approximately 88%, is tied up in fixed costs associated with general waste management.

These are fixed refuse collection services (Meldgaard and Fugato), equipment leasing/depreciation, and waste management/treatment.

When a property is traded, the real estate agent or lawyer must draw up a reimbursement statement. This reimbursement statement determines what the previous owner and the new owner each have to pay for (among other things) renovations. This is all adjusted via the property tax bill.

Yes, it is allowed to make a mess at the recycling centre, but there are certain materials and situations where it is not allowed.

Don't mess with that:

• Electrical scrap: This applies to both small and large electrical appliances, white goods and anything else that is powered.
• Hazardous waste: Neither what's on the table nor what's in the containers should be messy.
• Special container for donation: Containers set up by the Job Centre or other organisations for recycling items are also exempt.
• For sale: It is not allowed to clone materials for the purpose of resale.

Are you in doubt?
If you are unsure about what is allowed to be worn, ask the site staff.

Don't want your stuff to get messed up?
If for some reason you don't want what you bring to the recycling centre to be clumped by others, you can contact the site staff. They can either destroy it with machines or otherwise ensure that clumping does not take place.
