Residents in the municipality of Ibiza must follow an earlier timetable for disposing of household rubbish during the winter months, with general waste and organic waste accepted in public containers between 18:00 and 23:00. The winter schedule remains in force until 31 March 2027, while the Town Hall has also reminded residents of the weekday collection arrangements for bulky household items in different neighbourhoods.

Winter rubbish disposal hours in Ibiza

According to Ibiza Town Hall, the winter timetable follows the municipality's waste and street-cleaning ordinance. It moves the permitted disposal period for general waste and organic waste two hours earlier than during summer.

The rules for each waste category are:

The seasonal system divides the year into two periods. Summer runs from 1 April to 31 October, while winter runs from 1 November to 31 March.

Residents should make sure that rubbish is placed inside the appropriate container and that different waste categories are kept separate.

When should residents put out large items?

Items must not obstruct pavements, roads or access for pedestrians and vehicles. Residents should also avoid leaving bulky objects outside the designated collection arrangements.

For further information, the Town Hall's Environment Department can be contacted on 971 39 76 00.

Fines of up to €2,000 for waste-related offences

Ibiza Town Hall has also reminded residents that the municipal waste and street-cleaning ordinance includes financial penalties for failing to follow the rules.

Minor offences can carry fines of up to €2,000. Examples of conduct that may be penalised include leaving rubbish bags outside the designated containers and throwing cigarette butts onto public streets.

The maximum amount does not mean that every breach automatically results in a €2,000 fine. The applicable penalty depends on the offence and the relevant administrative procedure.

The municipal rules are intended to improve waste management, encourage correct separation and prevent rubbish and bulky objects from accumulating on public streets.

Residents can consult the Town Hall's official waste information and bulky-item collection schedule or contact the Environment Department for guidance.
