Municipal operators and workers from the Licuas company have proceeded to clean the clean points in the countryside areasThe responsibility of the neighbors is appealed so as not to give rise to unhealthy situations in these spacesThe Department of Environment urges citizens to make proper use of urban solid waste containers (MSW) in the areas of the Orchards and districts during the summer season to maintain optimal conditions of hygiene and sanitation, in addition to facilitate proper environmental management of waste.In this way, it is advocated to always deposit the corresponding waste in the container and use the collection services at home and the municipal eco-park offered by the Totana City Council.In the summer season, the use of selective collection containers is increased, as well as waste fraction residues located in the suburbs, especially in the area of ??the Orchards and districts, due to the displacement of neighbors to second homes during the summer.The improper use of containers causes, especially at this time, great difficulties in the collection service, a poor state of cleanliness of the containers and their surroundings, as well as a deplorable image of the rural environment, generating, in addition, a series of problems economic, social, environmental and public health added.In this sense, it is recalled that residues of pruning of private gardens cannot be deposited inside or outside it.

Nor can furniture and belongings be deposited inside or outside the container, or other remains such as bags, glass, sacks, debris, etc.To deposit this waste, you must contact the municipal ecopark that provides a service to collect pruning at home and other waste that is not deposited in the containers, by phone 968 425 308.Likewise, the lid of the waste fraction containers (organic waste) cannot be left open after depositing the waste, so it must always be kept closed to avoid the dispersion of waste and bad odors.In addition, it is recalled that the proper use of containers with respect to the waste that must be deposited is: yellow container (light containers -plastics, briks, preserves and soda cans-), blue (paper and cardboard), light green hood (glass ), orange (cooking oils), dark green (rest fraction) and beige (used clothes, shoes and toys).    The misuse of containers, depositing improper waste or out of it, is an infringement and carries the corresponding sanction under the environmental regulations applicable to waste, and can reach from 900 euros if it is slight to 45,000 euros if it is a very serious offense.
