A kind of tradition has already developed in Nizhnevartovsk: with the arrival of spring, as soon as the snow melts and the weather is stable, subbotniks are held until the beginning of summer. Someone himself goes out into the street to put things in order near the house or in public places, while others participate in subbotniks on a voluntary-compulsory basis. In any case, the benefits from them are simply enormous, the garbage bags are filled regularly, and the city is becoming prettier every day.
Cleanliness comes first
The administration of Nizhnevartovsk is trying to somehow organize events, gathering everyone who wants to join the subbotnik in socially significant places - squares, parks, squares, as well as in areas adjacent to cemeteries. Anyone can take part in the cleanup by taking part in putting things in order after a long winter. Saturday clean-ups are just a part of a large and voluminous work on the seasonal improvement of the city and precede the spring holidays, when residents can relax and enjoy a walk along the clean streets. By organizing subbotniks, local authorities provide those wishing to provide all possible assistance with all the necessary equipment: brooms, brooms, rakes and, of course, bags for cleaning.
Garbage collection and disposal
During subbotniks, they usually manage to tidy up a rather large area, therefore, the garbage comes across very different, starting with pieces of paper and candy wrappers, ending with something completely unimaginable. Therefore, the volunteers taking part in the cleanup are given strong and bulky garbage bags. Garbage bags are perhaps the most ingenious invention of mankind in such situations. You can, of course, do without them, but it's still more convenient with them. They are made from plastic wrap, and recyclable materials are also used in its production, thus recycling numerous plastic bags.
Plastic garbage bags are produced in different sizes and strengths, which allows the end user to choose the most suitable one for specific purposes. For the manufacture of garbage bags, high-quality plastic wrap is usually used. One of the main characteristics of the film is water resistance. During the cleanup, everyone who has to throw out wet or damp leaves and other garbage that has been in the water will be able to appreciate it. At the same time, the film does not creep in the hands under the influence of moisture, and then nothing flows from the package. In addition, polyethylene film does not react with the vast majority of solvents, including organic ones.
In cases of subbotniks, garbage bags are simply required in huge quantities, so they are ordered directly from the manufacturer, for example, in MIRPAK. Basically, they are selected according to two criteria - strength and size. Strength, in turn, depends on the thickness of the film, and the most dense and strong, as a rule, are large bags for large debris, including construction waste. The most practical and convenient, especially for outdoor work, are bags with ties that facilitate work.
By the end of the clean-up day, the only thing left is to collect all the bags of garbage. If residents were engaged in putting in order, for example, their local area on their own, all collected garbage is sent to containers. In the case of an organized event, collection and removal is centrally handled by the organizer.
