Description

Trnavá Hora lies between Žiar nad Hronom and Zvolen, in the Bánska Bystrica region, and it has 1 220 inhabitants. The town pays close attention to the systematic organisation of waste management, thanks to which it increased the extent of waste separation from 14% to 53% from 2010 to 2019.

A long journey of systemic measures contributed towards a continuous increase in the share of waste separation: implementation of the door-to-door waste separation, the opening of a collection yard, support of home composting, implementation of waste separation in recreational zones, implementation of biological waste collection and kitchen waste collection, all the way to transitioning from a flat-rate fee to an amount-based collection of mixed waste.
