With the new school year, primary and secondary schools in Uzice got steel containers for the disposal of waste from plastic bins which has been placed inside of schools. In this way, raw material could be stored until all waste will be transported to the PUC Duboko recycling center by special truck which was purchased in September.
After long public procurement process, container transport truck has arrived in Uzice. Truck is designed to transport 5m3 and 7m3 containers, that will be filled with waste from 14 schools which are involved in implementation of project “Primary waste selection”. In this way, infrastructural preconditions for process implementation, at the beginning of school year, are achieved. New truck will contribute to regular containers emptying and better recording of collected raw materials and this will further promote primary waste selection as a desirable and acceptable method of waste management in Uzice city. Two years in a row, Uzice conduct primary waste selection in the inner city area.
