Waste Collection Rescheduled

Freiburg waste collection delayed by Labor Day holiday changes

The regularly scheduled pickups originally planned for Friday, May 1—a public holiday—will be postponed to the following Saturday. The move comes in response to the nationwide Labor Day observance, with collection dates adjusted accordingly.

Facilities Closed on the Holiday

The Eichelbuck Transfer and Recovery Center, along with the recycling depot on Carl-Mez-Straße, will remain closed on May 1. Administrative offices will also be unstaffed that day.

Where Residents Can Find Updates

All updated collection schedules and facility opening hours are available in the waste management app. Alternatively, residents can access the information online at www.abfallwirtschaft-freiburg.de.
