According to the Waste Act, all residential properties must join waste management organised by the municipality. This also applies to holiday homes. All the owner municipalities of Kiertokapula have transferred the tendering and collection of mixed waste and biowaste as well as plastic packaging to Kiertokapula (Nurmijärvi as of 1 March 2023). The system also applies to local collection points.
Housing companies, detached house properties and holiday homes can join waste management using either a property-specific or jointly owned container. In the case of waste types other than those managed by Kiertokapula, properties agree on the emptying of containers with their chosen transport company.
To join the waste management system, visit the Asiakasnetti online service (Liity jätehuoltoon (Join waste management) link on the front page, only in finnish) or contact Kiertokapula’s customer service.
Properties for which it is not possible to arrange a property-specific container can register as users of a local collection point. Of our municipalities, local collection points are used in Hämeenlinna, Mäntsälä, Riihimäki and Valkeakoski.
