Danish Waste Association is a political interest organisation consisting of 53 members representing municipalities and inter-municipal waste management companies in Denmark and the Faroe Islands. Our members collect and handle household waste and commercial waste from all 98 municipalities with a total of 5.6 million citizens in Denmark. In the safeguarding of our members’ interests, the association aims to create the best possible framework conditions for execution of tasks, to promote cooperation, knowledge-sharing, dissemination of knowledge, and to qualify knowledge and information about new legislation and initiatives both nationally and in the EU. The aforementioned must be achieved in consideration of; security of energy supply for citizens and business community, optimal utilization of resources contained in waste including preservation and development of the municipal assets tied up in the waste sector, provision of a high service level for citizens and businesses with respect for the municipal decision-making power, an administratively simple waste regulation, and social responsibility.
