FTI is Förpackningsinsamlingen (the Packaging Collection Service). Our assignment is to collect packaging so it can be recycled.

You only drop off packaging at a recycling station. The packaging can be plastic, paper, glass or metal. You can also drop off newspapers there in most municipalities. Recycling stations are for consumers and run by FTI. At staffed municipal recycling centers, you can drop off bulky waste such as green garden waste, household appliances, furniture, electronics and similar.

No, municipalities are responsible for collecting municipal waste. The producers that place packaging on the market are responsible for ensuring that their packaging is collected and recycled. Packaging is not classified as municipal waste. Soon, however, the municipalities' tasks will change. The government has decided that the municipalities will take over the collection responsibility for household packaging from 1 January 2024. You can read more about the change here.
