Cártama last week received nearly 300 new rubbish bins, valued at €210,000, from the Provincial Solid Waste Consortium. The new bins, with a greater capacity than the old ones, will substitute those already distributed throughout the town. Cártama has a total of 600 bins, including for rubbish and recycling, and the consortium collects some 10,200 tonnes of waste in the town each year, most of it rubbish.
