Customers come to the recycling centers (ÅVC) to leave what they do not want anymore. Encouraging customers to recycle in the first place reduces the amount of waste and the need to make new items, saving both natural resources and energy. What cannot be reused should be sorted into the right fraction so that as much as possible can be recycled in the best possible way. As an employee at the recycling center, you have an important role in the meeting with customers. Our ambition is to develop the business in such a way that we contribute to a better environment and a higher degree of service to the citizens of the municipality. With us, you will be able to contribute to environmentally sustainable development and a more efficient use of the earth's resources. You will be part of our environmental work. In Boden municipality, we receive large amounts of food waste from most municipalities. The food waste is recycled into biogas, and the first step is to make a slurry of the food waste.
