Blocks of flats and larger terraced houses have their own containers for waste sorting in the yard or in a waste shelter. To facilitate your visit to the waste collection point of your building, please sort out your waste already in your own kitchen.
In the waste shelter or yard of your building, you will find containers for recyclable waste and burnable waste.
Types of waste collected in blocks of flats and terraced houses
| Number of flats in the property | Types of waste collected |
| 1 or more | Burnable waste |
| 4 or more | Burnable waste Metal |
| 10 or more | Burnable waste Metal Bio waste* Glass packaging |
| 20 or more | Burnable waste Metal Bio waste* Glass packaging Pastic packaging Carton packaging |
* If bio waste is composted on the property, there is no need to collect bio waste separately.
There are no containers reserved for hazardous waste, electronic waste, furniture, or other large waste items, and these types of waste shall not be left at the waste collection point or shelter of your building. Residents shall take these types of wastes to waste treatment centres, sorting stations, or other reception sites. LSJH can transport these types of wastes against a separate fee.
The waste fee is included in the maintenance charge paid by residents of block of flats, so there will be no separate waste fee invoice. For inquiries concerning waste management in blocks of flats or terraced houses, please contact the house manager or the customer service of Lounais-Suomen Jätehuolto, tel. 0200 47470 or asiakaspalvelu@lsjh.fi.
