Torremolinos launches three mobile eco-points throughout the municipality

The Torremolinos City Council is set to launch a system of mobile eco-points, an initiative that will bring recycling closer to all neighborhoods of the municipality. The Councilor for Environment and Circular Economy, Francisco Cerdán, explained that the mobile points will cover urban and tourist areas, as well as commercial and health sectors, in 12 locations starting next Monday, February 16. The mobile units will rotate following cycles of about five weeks, ensuring that each area receives the service every 10 or 14 days. They will rotate through Plaza del Remo, Chiriva Street, Nerja with the Paseo Marítimo, Camino del Pinillo Street, Avenida de los Manantiales with Plaza Costa del Sol, Plaza de Andalucía, Plaza de la Nogalera, Plaza Presidente Adolfo Suárez, Avenida de Benalmádena, Avenida Marifé de Triana in two locations, one at each end, and Vicente Blanch Picot Street. Each eco-point will be installed for 48 hours, facilitating the disposal of waste that does not usually fit in conventional containers. The system will allow for the incorporation of new areas, adapting to demand and progressively improving service coverage. The mobile eco-points are initially designed for the selective collection of paper and cardboard, lightweight packaging, glass, batteries, toners, or WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, such as small appliances).
