Solid problem solved! Biedenkopf takes care of the removal - improvement in sight!

At the beginning of 2025 there was a striking change in the waste disposal system in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district. With the takeover of the removal for waste paper, organic waste as well as residual and bulky waste through the garbage disposal association (MZV) Biedenkopf, a new chapter was opened in local waste management. As op-marburg.de Gurdulic out as dissatisfactory. Frequent tours, not emptied tons and a lack of drivers, contributed to numerous complaints.

In the course of the changeover, a team of 28, which is made up of experienced drivers of the former service provider. MZV branch manager Frank Müller assured that the transition should go smoothly because the employees are well familiar with the existing routes. This measure has led to "significantly less complaints" after only one month. The team was not constantly in use on three days.

technical challenges and solutions

Nevertheless, not all problems failed to materialize. Some of the newly purchased vehicles suffered from technical difficulties that were classified as "teething problems". Software problems generated in particular the coordination between the chassis and the structure. In order to reduce the deficit in the bulky waste disposal, the MZV also commissioned additional companies, which the remaining 700 open orders could not solve immediately.

The additional costs incurred by the operations of the additional removal companies are passed on to the Knettenbrech & Gurdulic company. The planned remuneration of the new drivers should take place according to the public service tariffs in order to increase the reliability and quality of the removal services in the long term.

administration and future plans

In addition to these operational changes, the MZV plans to move within the association area. The new vehicles are already stationed in the company location in Dautphetal-Friedensdorf.

The jurisdiction of the MZV extends over 16 municipalities and cities within the district. In this position, the association is specified for the removal of organic, residual and bulky waste as well as waste paper. Other types of waste, such as old glass and the yellow tons, fall into the jurisdiction of the dual system of Germany, as noted in the official announcements of the MZV Biedenkopf, which can be found at mzv-biedenkopf.de

Developments in the area of ​​garbage disposal and the constant improvement of services are the focus of future planning. The MZV endeavors to communicate the household 2025 and the resulting changes to the statutes transparently in order to bring the changes closer to the citizens of the district.
