El Putxet i el Farró’s gross organic waste collected is 30.73 kg per resident, quite similar to the city’s average (29.52 kg) while its percentage of “unsuitables”, waste deposited in the wrong place (24.85%) is a little higher than the city’s average of 22.21%.
Initiatives planned for this neighbourhood include promoting the use of compostable bags and a programme aimed at newcomers.
The target is to increase the amount of organic waste collected and improve the quality by means of a 20% reduction on the 2015 level of “unsuitables” (from 25% to 20%).
