The municipality of Selva in Mallorca is part of the Mancomunitat des Raiguer. The recycling collection of waste is organized together with eight other municipalities: Alaró, Binissalem, Búger, Campanet, Consell, Mancor de la Vall, Lloseta and Santa Maria del Camí. A weekly doorstep recycling collection started more than 10 years ago, in which according to a weekly calendar, each household disposes of 5 different waste fractions (organics, light packaging, glass, paper/cardboard as well as non-recyclable residual waste) on the street in front of its door. There are containers in each Village so the rural households (outside the villages of Selva, Moscari, Caimari and Biniamar) can deposit their different types of waste. WEEKLY CALENDAR FOR DOORSTEP RECYCLING COLLECTION SCHEME Attention, if you live in Binibona Village there ask for the specific weekly recycling calendar.
