The Villaviciosa de Odón City Council has launched new waste collection services for garden vegetation in the El Castillo, Cerro de las Nieves, Campodón, and El Bosque urbanizations, starting with bin distribution this Saturday, November 14.

Starting this Saturday, November 14, the Villaviciosa de Odón City Council, through its Environment department, is implementing new collection services for garden waste (brushwood, grass clippings, and small pruning debris) in the El Castillo, Cerro de las Nieves, Campodón, and El Bosque urbanizations. The aim is to offer a more convenient, orderly, and sustainable alternative for homes with gardens. Implementation will begin in El Castillo and Cerro de las Nieves, and will progressively continue in Campodón and El Bosque.
These new systems will replace the current bag collection method. Two options are available: a door-to-door collection service with individual bins for routine garden maintenance waste, and a municipality-wide service using open boxes for larger pruning volumes, upon request by calling 900 616 616.
From Saturday, November 14, waste collection service operators will visit homes included in the program to deliver the new bins and personally inform residents about the services' operation and usage conditions. An informational brochure with all campaign details will also be provided.
The new systems are designed to improve the separate collection of garden waste, ensure its specific treatment, and utilize these materials for valorization, while also helping to keep streets cleaner and safer.
