SRB takes initial stock: Winter service on schedule despite forecast freezing rain

The SRB (Städtische Regiebetrieb) has announced that the forecast freezing rain in Salzgitter was no problem for its employees. A thaw has now set in. (As of 12.01.2026, 1 p.m.)

Winter service of the SRB

The SRB's winter service is still working as planned The employees are now taking care of the areas that could not previously be serviced due to other priorities.
All available snow clearing and gritting vehicles are on the roads in Salzgitter.

Garbage collection

The waste collection service is on duty, but there may be cancellations due to the weather. In many places, it is difficult for employees to reach the waste garbage cans due to the mountains of snow that have been cleared to the right and left of the roads. The SRB asks that waste garbage cans that could not be emptied today be returned to the property and made available again on the next scheduled emptying date. The missed emptying will not be repeated.

If the volume of the yellow garbage can is not sufficient by the next emptying date, packaging can also be collected in transparent bags, which will then be taken along on the next regular emptying date as an exception

Paper containers on recycling container sites

If paper containers on public recycling container sites are already full, the SRB asks you not to leave paper and cardboard next to the containers, but to take the paper to the next free container or to take it with you again and only dispose of it when there is free capacity at the sites again.

The fire department has not been called out due to the weather and the rescue service has also not had any weather-related call-outs.
