Collecting for recycling

Waste collection and removal in Latvia

We collect and remove recyclable waste from businesses and organizations. We coordinate the schedule, volume, and most convenient collection method. We provide containers and ensure regular pickup or compactor exchange. Suitable for both daily waste streams and seasonal peaks.

3 ways to collaborate

Drop-off, purchasing, and collection all in one place

Choose the most convenient way to hand over material for recycling or dispose of waste. We adapt to the volume, material type, and your location.

01

Drop-off

Drop-off

Bring material to our site

If your waste is piled up and not baled, you can bring it to us. We help you get rid of accumulations quickly and will advise you on how best to prepare the material so it can be accepted and recycled. Arrival time must be arranged in advance.

Purchasing

Purchasing

We buy sorted material for recycling


We purchase materials that are already sorted, clean, and ready for recycling. Before delivery, we agree on the type, quality, and volume so that the terms and price are clear from the start. Suitable for both regular deliveries and larger one-time quantities.

Collection

Collection

We arrive, collect, and haul away

If dropping it off isn't convenient, we will come and pick it up. We can install a press container (16 m³ or 20 m³) for regular flow or collect it with a manipulator if the material is in rolls/bags (e.g., film, big bags). We operate in the Tukums area (Cēre parish, "Sprīdīši") and also organize collection elsewhere by prior arrangement of logistics.

Benefits

Collection with a guaranteed process and result

We provide a full cycle from collection to recycling. We carry out press container exchanges and collections within 24 hours, prepare a certificate for each instance, and register the handover in the APUS system to ensure your documentation is in order. Collected materials are put to practical use: hard plastic turns into flakes, film into granules, and non-recyclable plastic mixtures are prepared as fuel for energy production.

24h press container exchange/collection

When a press container fills up, we exchange or empty it within 24 hours so you don't have downtime or a "nowhere to put it" situation. Additionally, we can provide fill-level monitoring and logistics, allowing for timely collection planning.

Certificate + registration in the APUS system

Organized documentation for collection. For every collection, we prepare a certificate and register the handover in the APUS system. This means you have clear proof of handing over waste to a company with the appropriate permits, and everything is traceable according to State Environmental Service (VVD) requirements.

Waste turns into products, it doesn't just "disappear"

We process hard plastics into flakes and film into granules, and the film raw material is also used to make "Labais Maisas" trash bags. Materials that cannot be processed into granules or flakes are prepared as fuel for energy production so that waste is not wasted.

Cooperation in 5 steps

We agree on the type of material, volume, and collection logistics (drop-off or pick-up). You can choose a one-time arrangement without a contract or regular cooperation with a contract and containers.
