Recycling address book in Serbia is a unique and comprehensive database of recycling islands, from public utility companies as well as private recycling operators licensed to treatment of waste  in Serbia.

Recycling  address book is created as part of Green initiative activities, a network of 22 civil society organizations, which in cooperation with the Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC) ​​and with funding from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), implements activities oriented towards stimulation of primary waste selection at the local and national level.

Through recycling database, each citizen is able to  find out where  in the place where he/she lives, can deliver particular type of waste for recycling. The database gives users the ability to find out the address, street number of recycling islands in their city or place they live in,   as well as information on what type of waste that they can deliver in a particular recycling island (paper, PET, metal, glass, electronic or electrical waste).

    Kontejneri na reciklaznom ostrvu u mom komsiluku se jako retko prazne, ponovo su puni do vrha i ljudi su poceli da ostavljaju kese po trotoaru oko kontejnera. Molim Vas da objavite kome se mozemo obratiti u vezi sa ovim.

      Najbolje je da kontaktirate operatera koji je postavio kontejnere, i zamolite ih da redovnije prazne kontejnere. Proverite na samim konjenterima verovatno ima neka oznaka, da li je u pitanju neki privatni operater ili javno komunalno preduzece, pa bi najbolje bilo da ih pozovete.
