Questions

Where can I recycle in Helsinki?
The map shows 203 mapped recycling points. Tap one to see which materials the survey recorded.
Which materials are accepted?
OpenStreetMap records accepted materials per point, so glass, paper, plastic and clothing banks are often distinguishable. Coverage of the detail varies by country.
Where does this recycling points data come from?
From OpenStreetMap, a map built by volunteer surveyors and maintained continuously. It is the best available source for small fixtures like this one, because they are the things commercial map providers do not bother collecting.
Something is missing or wrong. Can I fix it?
Yes, and it is the fastest way to get it corrected. Edit the point on openstreetmap.org and the change flows through to this page on the next refresh. There is no separate database here to correct.
Is the list of recycling points in Helsinki complete?
It is as complete as the local survey effort. Densely mapped cities are close to exhaustive; elsewhere expect gaps. The map is always the fuller view, since the list on this page only names the points that have a name.
