In the Nizhny Novgorod region set a reduced tariff for separate waste collection

The Nizhny Novgorod region has become the first region in Russia where a tariff is set for the export of sorted solid municipal waste (MSW). The fee for the export of plastic will be on average 21% less than for waste disposed of in a common container, the press service of the regional government said on Saturday.

In August, the region began a phased transition to a separate garbage collection system - by the end of the year, more than 2.2 thousand yellow mesh containers for collecting plastic will be installed in the Nizhny Novgorod Region, and from 2020 separately it is also planned to collect paper, glass, metal, and textile.

"The Nizhny Novgorod Tariff Service was the first in Russia to set a tariff for separate waste collection. Nizhny Novgorod will pay on average 21% less for plastic than for waste disposed of in a green container [for all types of waste]," the report said.

In particular, in Nizhny Novgorod, the tariff for the export of plastic from yellow containers is 506.58 rubles per cubic meter. m, which is 20% lower than the current tariff. According to the head of the regional tariff service Yulia Aleshina, this was achieved "by eliminating from the tariff most of the cost of waste disposal at landfills."

The governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region, Gleb Nikitin, noted that the transition to separate collection of garbage, which residents take independently at the general meeting of owners, will allow paying less for the removal of MSW. "By switching to separate collection of garbage, Nizhny Novgorod will be able to control the fee for this utility service. That is, by throwing plastic in the yellow container and the rest of the garbage in the green container, people will be able to switch to pay volumes after the fact and pay less," Nikitina quotes press service.

According to regional authorities, the decision to install yellow containers was made in 120 residential buildings in the region.
