In Randers Municipality, household waste is sorted into ten trash categories, including food waste, residual waste, paper, cardboard, glass, metal, plastic, textiles, hazardous waste and food and beverage cartons. Residents receive containers that support sorting, and the municipality works to increase recycling and reduce environmental impact. The AffaldRanders app provides collection reminders and sorting guidance, bulky waste can be ordered, and recycling centres accept waste not collected at home.

In the AffaldRanders app and Mit Affald self-service, you can view your collection calendar, request changes and report a missed collection. Bins must be accessible on collection day in accordance with the municipality's access requirements.
AffaldRanders includes a searchable sorting guide. The municipality also offers the printed and digital guide 'Din sortering gør en forskel', with examples of local bins and drop-off options.
Randers collects bulky waste 11 times a year by booking. Book no later than three working days beforehand and place sorted items at the official entrance by 7 a.m.; where possible, items should be under 1 x 1 x 1 metre and 20 kg.
Household hazardous waste is handed in through the environmental box or at one of the municipality's four recycling centres. Batteries can be placed in the box or in a sealed clear freezer bag on top of an individual bin.
Garden waste is not included in bulky-waste collection. It can be delivered sorted at a recycling centre, while smaller amounts of suitable green kitchen and garden waste can be composted at home.
