Östersund municipality arranges tailgate auction: “Wants people to recycle more than they throw away”

About ten cars with packed tailgates had appeared for sale at the recycling center in Östersund. The municipality’s communicator for waste and water, Ingela Persson, would have liked to have hoped for more cars, but was still satisfied.

– We have run this a few years before, but with a break during the pandemic. We want it to be frequent because it is important that as much as possible is reused before it is finally recycled. It’s the best thing you can do for the environment.

In the Östersund municipality’s plans for a new cycle park, it should be included as a natural way to get rid of stuff. Hear more about it in the clip above.
