Waste Sorting in Himmerland
A simple guide to help you handle your waste responsibly and contribute to a cleaner environment during your holiday.
Not sure how to sort your waste?
It depends on which municipality you are staying in – sorting systems may differ from what you are used to at home.
Always follow the local guidelines in the area where you are spending your holiday.
Mariagerfjord Kommune
In Mariagerfjord Municipality, glass must be sorted into the designated glass containers or taken to one of the local recycling centres. Find your nearest glass container HER

These can be purchased at the following recycling stations:
