Frequent questions of our customers

Do I have to take back transit packaging from my customers?
Yes. The “polluter pays” principle means that transport packaging must be taken back after use. EU packaging regulations expressly permit the commissioning of a third-party service provider, however. By participating in a take-back system, you can therefore fulfil your legal obligations while avoiding the hassle of handling the returns yourself.
My customers charge a flat fee for packaging disposal work. Is this legal?
Yes. Your customers can charge flat fees for disposal. By doing so, they compensate for the disposal effort required if you do not take back your packaging yourself – e.g. because you use a take-back system. Note that flat fees for disposal are not based on 1:1 compensation, as they are typically unrelated to the packaging type and quantity used.
Our logistics work involves Interseroh-labelled transit packaging. How can I participate in the nationwide take-back system?
Our Transport Packaging Service Centre will be happy to help with your enquiry.
What happens to the transport packaging collected?
Interseroh ensures that the packaging is properly sorted and transferred to a recycling facility. The aim is to close the material loop and avoid the use of primary resources as far as possible.
