FreshUp Vending Machines: Your One-Stop Solution for MSW Charging





The solid waste charging scheme will be implemented on April 1st, requiring all residential and non-residential premises, including the commercial and industrial sectors, to pay for garbage disposal based on the number of bags used. Citizens must purchase designated plastic bags and labels before disposing of their garbage. In the initial stage of the policy, citizens may feel uncertain about purchasing the designated bags and labels, fearing shortages, like buying masks during COVID-19. As one of the consultative bodies for the Environmental Protection Department's waste charging scheme, FreshUp has launched the service of selling waste charging bags through vending machines to help various industries prepare in advance and assist citizens in gradually adapting to the new legislation. Here are the three significant advantages of using the waste charging bag vending machine:

FreshUp's waste charging bag vending machine service offers various payment methods, such as Octopus, WeChat Pay, Alipay, PayMe, Tap & Go, credit cards, etc. Citizens can choose their preferred and convenient payment method to ensure the safety and convenience of transactions. The vending machines selling designated garbage bags and labels can effectively divert the number of people queuing at offline sales points, reduce citizens' queuing time.
