How do rubbish collection and recycling work?

Bag household waste securely and check what is permitted in the chute. Keep cardboard, glass, bulky items, liquids and anything that could block or damage it out of the chute. Ask about disposal hours and never leave bags in corridors, stairwells or beside the chute door.

For recycling, check the labels on the available bins and confirm which materials are accepted. Keep accepted items empty and reasonably clean, flatten cardboard and avoid contaminating recycling with food or general rubbish. Do not assume every recycling point accepts the same materials.

Arrange separate disposal for furniture, appliances, electronics, batteries, paint and other items unsuitable for normal bins. Ask management about approved collection services or designated drop-off points before leaving anything in a shared area. Confirm whether your movers will remove packing materials after unpacking.
