As part of the Festivities in Honour of Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem in Moita, the ‘Tarde do Fogareiro’ event, which takes place on 18 September, will be supported by Amarsul, which will be present with an Environmental Education Team to raise awareness amongst participating groups and the public about the correct sorting of glass packaging. For this year’s event, bags will be provided exclusively for the disposal of glass packaging, as well as tilting glass collection bins at various points around the venue. Amarsul’s Environmental Education Team will also collect glass packaging from the participating groups using collection rucksacks. At the end of the event, collection from the venue will be carried out by Amarsul vehicles, in coordination with the local council.

Between 17 and 20 September, Amarsul will be present at the 64th AT PGA Aroeira Portuguese Open, taking place in Aroeira, Almada, and will be supporting this major sporting event by promoting good environmental practices. During the four days of competition, Amarsul will ensure the separate collection of waste produced on site by providing suitable equipment and overseeing waste management.

On 11 and 12 September, YARD – One Last Summer Dance returns for another edition in the White Sand Mountains, once again with the support of Amarsul, which will ensure the implementation of a selective waste collection system during the event.

Amarsul will be taking part in Trafaria (Com)Prova – Wines & Tapas on the Banks of the Tagus, which takes place from 4 to 6 September 2026 at the Trafaria Riverside Promenade in Almada.

From 3 to 8 September, Palmela will host another edition of the Grape Harvest Festival, one of the municipality’s most traditional and culturally significant events. Amarsul will be present throughout the event, promoting the correct sorting and disposal of waste.

During this summer period, the increase in population and tourist activity in the Setúbal Peninsula also translates into greater waste production. To meet this challenge, the Amarsul and municipal teams are making an additional effort, with more people and resources on the ground, reinforcing collection, cleaning and sanitation operations. But this is an effort that requires everyone's collaboration: correctly separating waste and placing it in the appropriate containers are essential steps to keep the region cleaner and more sustainable. In this context, Amarsul is currently carrying out an operational reinforcement for the summer of 2026, with the aim of responding to the significant increase in the production of recyclable waste associated with the bathing season, the seasonal growth of the population and the increase in economic activity in the Setúbal Peninsula.
