Poczta Polska promotes recycling. Used batteries, small RTV and household appliances can be brought to the facilities

Poczta Polska, in cooperation with MB Recycling and Terra Recycling, the Przyleental Group, launches the pilot collection of small electronics and household appliances. Special electricity containers will appear in over 350 facilities in the province. Mazowiecki, Śląskie and Łódź. Involved in pro -ecological activities, Poczta Polska will help customers to get rid of electro -tracks in a responsible way - which supports environmental protection and the development of the closed circulation economy.

The pilot is conducted in post offices located in the voivodships:

  • Mazowiecki, incl. in Warsaw (52 facilities), Piaseczno, Płock, Siedlce, Radom, Żyrardów and Ostrołęka;
  • Śląski, incl. in Katowice, Częstochowa, Sosnowiec, Gliwice, Rybnik, Bytom, Tychy, Chorzów and Zabrze;
  • Łódź - Łódź (15 facilities).

Small electro -waste can be thrown into specially marked containers: irons, electric kettles, routers, mobile phones, watches and electric toys. Ecological cardboard containers contain tips on devices that can reach them. Used batteries, so far, are collected for separate containers that have been found in post offices since 2015.

Project partners take care of the operation of new household appliances. When the containers fill up, facility employees will report the need to empty them. Waste will be collected and transported to specialized recycling points.

Environmental protection and convenience for clients

Electro -waste contains both valuable raw materials and harmful substances that can negatively affect the environment. By helping customers getting rid of such waste, first batteries, and now also household appliances, we contribute to nature protection, we support recycling and sustainable development. All electro -waste collected by companies such as MB Recycling and Terra Recycling are processed. Valuable substances and materials are recovered from them: iron, non -ferrous, plastics. These raw materials are used in the production of new devices and products.

- Ecological responsibility is one of the pillars of our activities. Extending the offer to collect small household appliances is a natural step in developing our pro -ecological services. Thanks to this, we give customers a real opportunity to take care of the environment in a simple and convenient way - on the occasion of daily visits to institutions. We believe that this project will meet with great interest and will become another step in building a more ecological future - emphasizes Piotr Szajczyk, vice president of Poczta Polska for sales.

Electro -waste containers in postal facilities enable customers to conveniently and responsible getting rid of electro -tracks that should not go to ordinary garbage containers. They can also be delivered to specialized collecting points of electro-tracks or PSZOKs (selective municipal collection points).

The project is implemented with pilot. If the initiative, like the collection of batteries, is met with great interest of customers, Poczta Polska plans to set the containers in other facilities. We encourage you to fill the containers with electro -waste in homes.
