DISCOUNTED DELIVERY IN THE RESIDUAL WASTE ZONE
For the fee-based residual waste zone, you will need a QR code for entry and exit for the discounted drop-off. As a Graz resident over the age of 16 (main or secondary residence in Graz), you can enter the residual waste zone at a reduced rate: with your personal QR code, you pay only 6 euros per entry (up to 200 kg) 5 times a year!
From the 6th entry or for quantities over 200 kg and for non-Graz residents the standard tariff applies. For the free zones you do not need a QR code.
