The Castellbisbal City Council has implemented a new sack system to improve the management of pruning waste in the municipality's urbanizations.

Residents can collect these sacks at the mobile waste collection point to deposit plant waste from garden cleaning, such as grass, leaves, garden debris, or branches.
To use the service, a deposit of 5 euros per sack is required. Once full, and within a maximum of one month, citizens must request collection by calling 937 711 745. Afterwards, they have one month to return the sacks to the mobile waste collection point and retrieve their deposit.

"This initiative provides a practical and accessible alternative for citizens to manage plant waste. The service also aims to prevent uncivil practices and contribute to preserving the environment."

This new feature of the mobile waste collection point complements existing services, such as the supply of compostable bags for organic waste and containers for the selective collection of used cooking oil.
The mobile waste collection point operates on Mondays and Fridays, from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM and from 4:15 PM to 6:15 PM, and on Saturday mornings from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM. Its location varies weekly among different points in the municipality, including Carrer Electrònica de Santa Rita, Carrer Avet at Can Costa park, Avinguda Gayarre de Can Campanyà, Carrer Tramuntana at Santa Teresita park, Carrer Ebre/Riutort de Can Santeugini, and Carrer Montjuïc opposite the Can Santeugini civic center.
