About paper collection campaigns

As a pioneer in paper waste collection in Slovenia, we have been working with various educational institutions for many years. In addition to providing logistical support, we also share our expertise – passing valuable knowledge on to students.

As part of the collection campaign “I Collect Waste Paper, I Support a Friend,” we enabled participating institutions to collect paper waste, with the proceeds from its sale donated to young people from socially disadvantaged families. In doing so, students took responsibility for a cleaner environment while also helping their peers – strengthening their sense of solidarity.

The project was supported by the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport; the Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning; the Ministry of Health; the Ministry of Public Administration; and the Olympic Committee of Slovenia. The project partners were the PISMO SRCA Foundation and the Eco-School programme.

Every year, we collaborate with several hundred schools in paper collection drives, gathering up to 2,500 tons of paper.

About the cap collection campaign

Together with the Friends of Youth Association of Slovenia (ZPMS) and C&A stores, we organized a charity drive to collect bottle caps for the Sapramiška Fund.

The collected funds were allocated to children with special needs from socially disadvantaged families who required financial support for psychosocial assistance, physical therapy, and various medical and other essential aids.

Feedback from Participants in the Collection Campaigns

At Grm Primary School, we have a long-standing tradition of collecting waste paper. Each year, we collect between 10 and 50 tons. The proceeds are used to support socially disadvantaged students, purchase school equipment, and reward pupils. We have been cooperating with Dinos for the past ten years. Together, we have successfully established a structured collection campaign. Paper is collected every Wednesday in April and every Friday in October, which adds up to eight collection dates. Each time, two classes are in charge of the collection, helping to avoid crowds. Students store paper at home throughout the year and bring it to the school parking lot on the designated day, where two Dinos containers are already waiting from 6 a.m. When parents drop off their children at school, Dinos workers help load the paper from the cars, allowing parents to continue on to work without delay. This way, parents save valuable time and students don’t miss any classes. That same day, the friendly Mateja informs us how much paper we collected. I believe our successful collaboration will continue in the future.

At Lesce Primary School, we are aware of the importance of recycling and aim to instill this value in our students. We are glad to have Dinos as a reliable partner in organizing waste paper collection campaigns. We have been working together for many years in a respectful and cooperative way, always finding the best solutions together — in terms of organization, logistics, and execution.
