Signs for the waste collection point

We offer the residential property of Helsinki Metropolitan Area and Kirkkonummi free of charge orderable and printable sorting and other instructions, as well as materials for ordering at your own expense.

The property is obliged to inform the residents of the obligation to sort their waste, and to take care of up-to-date sorting instructions. The property must also take care of the marking of waste collection equipment. We offer our customer properties different materials for these needs.
