Starting with January 2020, Romanians are encouraged to “be in the country as well as abroad” and to hand over waste from electrical and electronic equipment responsibly.

Between 7 and 25 September 2020, ECOTIC, APM Galați, National Environmental Guard – Galați County Commissariat, Galați City Hall, SP Ecosal Galați and S.C. Water Canal S.A. Galati urges the inhabitants of Galati to hand over waste for electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) correctly for recycling, and each person who delivers waste of at least 20kg will receive an instant prize.

The inhabitants of Galați benefit from the free service of taking from home large and voluminous WEEEs.

“Clean Cities” Galați is part of the national information campaign “Be in your country as well as abroad”, organized by ECOTIC in partnership with the Ministry of Environment, Waters and Forests. Its purpose is to contribute to the awareness of the Romanian public regarding the correct behavior towards a type of waste: WEEE – waste electrical and electronic equipment.

Through it, ECOTIC aims to promote good practices from the European Union and to inform the Romanian public on the solutions for separate collection of electrical and electronic waste available to all: electronics and home appliances stores, municipal collection points and campaigns on which ECOTIC carries out regularly, in urban and rural areas.
