The city's waste management company. It empties residual waste, paper and organic bins, runs 12 recycling centres (Wertstoffhöfe) and a paid bulky waste pickup, and publishes a collection calendar and an A to Z waste lexicon. Information for newcomers is available in English and many other languages. The citywide yellow bin from 2027 is organised by the dual systems, with information on the AWM website.
