Municipal collection of waste electronics

The local authorities are in charge of collection, management, and sorting of the majority of waste electronics from households. Producers and the compliance schemes must report annually the quantities and fractions they have picked up from the municipal collection sites. In a number of cases, agreements have been entered between two or more local authorities, waste management companies, or between local authorities and compliance schemes to the effect that municipal quantities are collected from collection sites not located in the municipality where the collection took actually place. In some cases, some municipalities will therefore appear with a higher volume collected than it was actually the case. Similarly, some municipalities will appear without any collected volumes or with very low volumes. Each local authority must ensure or set requirements for how to have the operators of the producers enter data on collected quantities in the right municipality.

Note to table: Total quantities collected per capita have been calculated by DPA. Data on inhabitants are extracts from Statistics Denmark. The number of collection sites is based on the municipalities’ registration of collection sites with DPA and on the collective schemes’ reporting of quantities picked up from the collection sites. Municipalities without specified quantities of waste electronics collected, may be due to the fact that waste electronics are collected outside the municipality, or the municipality has not registered with a collection site for waste electronics in the DPA register, or the compliance scheme has not reported any quantities collected.
