Fredericia Municipality is located by the Little Belt and is known for its historic town centre and distinctive fortifications, reflecting the city’s military past. It is a cultural and business hub in the Triangle Region with modern facilities and attractive residential areas.
Fredericia Municipality prioritises waste sorting as part of its sustainability work. Residents sort waste into fractions such as plastic, paper, glass, metal, food waste and residual waste. The waste and recycling service provides an app with collection calendars and sorting guidance. Recycling centres, reuse facilities and separate schemes for hazardous waste, small electronics and garden waste support correct handling and circular use of resources.
In Fredericia Municipality, Affald & Genbrug handles waste services. Their website provides information about waste schemes, collection calendars, recycling centres, prices, business waste and construction waste.
Fredericia has two recycling centres at Bundgårdsvej 2 and Nordre Kobbelvej 9. Residents can deliver sorted waste there, and the sites have rules for access, number-plate reading and 24-hour access options.
At Nordre Kobbelvej there is a reuse centre and reuse shop. The shop sells second-hand items, while Frede is a free reuse area where residents can take selected items home.
Hazardous waste must be delivered to the dedicated area at the recycling centre. Explosive waste, except under special rules for fireworks, must not be delivered to the recycling centre.
For demolition, renovation or maintenance, construction waste must be reported at least two weeks before work begins if more than 1 tonne of waste is generated. Smaller amounts can be delivered to the recycling centre.
Fredericia Municipality's waste plan focuses on the waste hierarchy, more reuse, high recycling and local circular resource handling. The municipality has performed strongly on waste recycling.
