What do you sort where at the recycling centre in Eskilstuna when you are clearing out before the move?

Everything that needs electricity to function, with a cord or batteries, is handed in as electronics. This includes, for example, vacuum cleaners, hair dryers, computers, phones, lamp fixtures and corded tools. Stopped furniture, mattresses, blankets, pillows, carpets, wallpaper and laminate flooring are thrown away as Non-recyclable. This also includes toys and plastic flower pots. Plastic that has packaged a product, such as bubble wrap and foam from a delivery, goes to Plastförpackningar. The bags you have transported the waste in are thrown away as Non-recyclable when they are empty. According to Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö, 70 per cent of what was thrown away as Non-recyclable could have been recycled if it had been sorted correctly.

Can you leave bulk waste in the waste room when moving from a rental apartment in Eskilstuna?

No. Anything that does not fit in a regular bag is considered bulk waste and should be taken to Lilla Nyby or ReTuna. It must never be left in the building's waste room or at a recycling station. The fixed waste fee that all households pay covers, among other things, recycling centres and the treatment of bulk waste and hazardous waste. In 2026, it is 832 kronor per year for rental apartments, 899 kronor for tenant-owned apartments, and 1,309 kronor for one- and two-dwelling houses.

What do I do with the things that are not coming with me?

Our advice is to sort out what you are not taking with you when you start packing, and take it to a recycling centre before moving day. Then the removal company only carries and drives what is coming along, and the working time gets shorter.
