Detached houses and small apartment blocks
Residents of detached houses or housing companies with 1–4 homes have many options for waste management. At the moment, the minimum requirement is a waste container for combustible waste, in which biowaste can also be added. From October 2023 the majority of households in Stormossen’s operating area (Vaasa, Korsholm, Vörå, Isokyrö, Vähäkyrö, Malax, and Korsnäs) must join in the separate sorting of biowaste. Here you can check the areas affected by the separate collection of biowaste.
Separating biowaste from combustible waste is an environmentally friendly act. Biowaste does more harm than good amongst combustible waste because it burns badly. Separately sorted biowaste can also be used in Stormossen’s biowaste plant to produce biogas and compost soil.
