On Saturday, June 28, 2025, the recycling center will be closed - we are celebrating the open day!

From February 2025, there will be new rules for the collection of green waste. The changes will protect the health of employees. Bad Homburg offers the collection of green waste. You can also take the green waste to the recycling center.

These new rules will apply from February 2025:

- Green waste must be bundled or placed in thick 80-liter paper bags.

- No reusable containers such as pop-up containers, big bags or cardboard boxes may be used.

The new rules protect the health of employees:

- There is a risk of injury from incorrectly provided or heavy green waste.

- There is a risk of accidents due to wedged branches.

- Mold spores in garden leaves are dangerous to health.

- Fermentation liquid in containers or plastic bags is unhygienic.

Employees used to pour the containers by hand. This is no longer permitted. The new measures protect the safety and health of employees. The depot asks all citizens to observe the new rules. The waste disposal company Meinhardt GmbH & Co KG can help with any questions on 0800-723 9338.

The paper bags can be purchased at the recycling center in Georg-Schaeffler-Straße, in DIY stores and from these partners:

- Farbenhaus Scheller GmbH, Massenheimer Weg 8

- Rosen-Apotheke, Wetterauer Str. 3A

- Aniol Services - post office, Homburger Str. 27

- Bunte Tüte, Ober-Eschbacher Str. 33

- Trendhaus am Bach, Bachstr. 13

The town of Bad Homburg rents out a mobile crockery unit and crockery free of charge. You cannot use disposable crockery at parties and events in Bad Homburg.

If your dishwasher has enough space, you can hire just the crockery.

For large parties, we recommend the mobile crockery unit. It has two large dishwashers.
