At the recycling center
This is how it works on site:
- Park your vehicle on the "scales area" and register at the scales.
- Then follow the instructions of the recycling center staff.
The allocation - where the individual items are correctly disposed of - is carried out by our specialist staff.
Waste deliverers must provide binding information about the origin and composition of the materials (if necessary also in writing by providing personal details). If external companies or similar deliver to our recycling centers, the client must also be present. Caregivers require a valid power of attorney and a copy of their ID. Family members can drop off bulky waste after presenting a copy of their ID. The prerequisite for this is proof of a power of attorney or guardianship/death certificate/tenancy agreement. - Re-weighing and calculation
After unloading, a reweighing takes place. To do this, please park your car on the "weighing area" again and report to the weighing office.
Billing is based on volume or weight. (in Lobeda-West only small quantities by weight).

The mascot 'Freddy' from Science City Jena Basketball uses the match-free period for a visit to the materials yard.
Where do you take old electrical appliances? How do you separate used glass and what happens to the cardboard boxes? Freddy was able to experience a lot and dispose of even more. Watch video
Does that sound exciting? There are great offers for kindergartens and elementary school on the topics of recycling and waste disposal. Further information on the page: Environmental education

Material flows at the recycling center
The KSJ collects waste separately and controls the respective disposal routes (e.g. reuse, material recycling, thermal recycling, landfilling). All material flows are recorded. They provide information, e.g. on types of quantities, and form the basis for professional disposal and the development of the infrastructure of the recycling centers.
Over 40 different types of waste are now collected separately at the "Löbstedter Straße" recycling center. Around 98% of the waste at the recycling center can be thermally or materially recycled.
