The Ecocard is a card that allows citizens to access Lugano's ecocentri (Recycling Centers). It is also a useful tool for the City as it provides information that can be used to improve the ecocentri service.

Once at the ecocentro, it is necessary to show the Ecocard so that a manager can verify the right of access (an ID card may also be required). The card can also be used by family members of the holder who live in the same household.

The Ecocard is sent to new citizens shortly after notification of their arrival in the city.

The first Ecocard is free, while additional cards, replacement of lost, or damaged cards involve a fee.

In case of loss or for additional cards

It is possible to apply for a new Ecocard (cost: CHF 40.)
