Short answer

Generally, you can recycle at any staffed recycling center in the advertiser’s home municipality that accepts private individuals.
As a helper, you act on behalf of the advertiser and are responsible for ensuring that the waste is dropped off in the correct location according to local rules.

Where you can recycle

Use an approved recycling center

You may only drop off waste at municipal or approved facilities – never at unstaffed sites, outside gates, or in bulky waste rooms.

Provide the advertiser’s address at entry

Some recycling centers require ID or address verification.
If so, state that you are dropping off waste for a private individual via Tiptapp.
You can always show the advert in the app as proof.
In the UK, you might also be obligated to show Waste Carrier License (WCL).

Follow the sorting instructions

Sort all materials correctly – for example wood, metal, electronics, combustible waste, and garden waste.
It is your responsibility to follow the recycling center’s rules.

Important to know

  • You must always use a recycling center located in the advertiser’s home municipality.

  • You may not drop off hazardous waste, gas cylinders, chemicals, paint, asbestos, or similar materials.

  • Leaving items anywhere other than an approved recycling center is considered littering. It is illegal and may lead to suspension from Tiptapp.
