Waste management informed: New collection plans for 2026 distributed!

What is happening in Donau-Ries and Dillingen? The Northern Swabian Waste Management Association (AWV) has quickly started distributing the printed collection plans for 2026. As the Augsburger Allgemeine reported, all households are served with the plans, which contain important information about waste disposal dates and then relevant details.

Many of these plans have already been received by citizens in the past few days, and the remaining copies will follow over the course of the month. The collection plans are not only a practical tool for keeping track of the emptying dates for residual waste, organic and paper bins as well as the collection of yellow bags. They also provide information about the opening times of the recycling center and the green collection point nearby as well as the dates of the pollutant mobile.

Important dates and promotions

A notable date that all environmentally conscious citizens should note is the big hallway clean-up “The AWV is cleaning up!”, which will take place from March 14th to 28th, 2026. Anyone who enjoys creating a clean environment should not miss this call for community clean-up.

For the digital generation, AWV Nordschwaben also offers modern options for waste collection planning. This means you can easily view the plans via the AWV North Swabia website or the specially developed app can be downloaded as a calendar or list. A special highlight: Integration into private online calendars is possible through a generated ics file, and the app even sends notifications about short-term deviations as well as reminders for emptying dates.

Data protection in the digital age

In times of digitalization, data protection is also a hot topic. For example, Google Translate is used for translation on the AWV website. However, this means that the user's IP address is stored, as stated in the Matomo -Data protection declaration is addressed.

Matomo, an open source web analysis service, also anonymizes IP addresses for data processing purposes. This ensures that information on browser information, usage statistics, and much more is treated in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

With the new collection plan, citizens in Donau-Ries and Dillingen now have everything important at a glance. From the garbage appointments to the information about recycling options to the big clean-up campaign - an all-round successful municipal service!
