Disposing of waste and garbage is quite simple in Denmark if you know the rules ...
Also, if you have old clothes and shoes you could donate them to the Red Cross (Røde Kors).
If you have old electronic equipments, especially computers, you could donate them to FAIR Denmark.
You can also drive to your nearest recycling center (either genbrugsstationer or naergenbrugsstationer) and get rid of your waste and garbage directly. In the biggest centers, you might find people actually donating furniture and other objects in perfect conditions. Check more on www.kk.dk/affald.

Nu kan du nemt komme af med dit farlige affald
Din ejendom er tilmeldt Københavns Kommunes viceværtordning for indsamling af farligt affald. Det betyder, at du kan aflevere det farlige affald til viceværten eller den person, der har ansvaret for indsamlingen af farligt affald. Du vil på opslag i opgangen kunne se, hvem der har ansvaret hos jer og hvor og hvornår det farlige affald kan afleveres.
Pas godt på det farlige affald
Det farlige affald skal opbevares med stor forsigtighed i hjemmet. Det er bedst med en fast plads (tørt og ikke for varmt) og altid utilgængeligt for børn og husdyr. Stil affaldet oprejst, så det ikke løber ud. Lad det blive i den originale emballage, så man kan se, hvad der er i. Er den originale emballage gået i stykker, så kom affaldet i et gammelt syltetøjsglas eller anden sikker emballage, og skriv, hvad emballagen indeholder.
Smid aldrig farligt affald i skraldespanden eller i kloakken
Farligt affald må aldrig smides i skraldespanden, hældes i kloakken, brændes af eller smides på jorden, da det vil forurene naturen. Når du sorterer dit affald, skåner du altså miljøet. Farligt affald skal altid afleveres til særlig behandling, og de forskellige muligheder for aflevering ud over gennem viceværtordningen, kan du se nedenfor.
Andre muligheder for aflevering af farligt affald

Now you can easily get rid of your hazardous waste
Your property is enrolled in Copenhagen's caretake system for collection of hazardous waste. This means that you can deliver hazardous waste to the caretaker or the person responsible for collection of hazardous waste. You'll notice in the hallway to see who has the responsibility at your place and where and when the hazardous waste can be delivered.
Take care of the hazardous waste
The hazardous waste must be stored with care in the home. It is best with a fixed space (dry, not too hot) and always out of reach of children and pets. Style waste upright so it does not spill out. Let it be in their original packaging, so you can see what is in. If the original packaging broken, then came the waste in an old mayonnaise jar or other secure containers, and write what they contain.
Never dispose of hazardous waste in the trash or down the drain
Hazardous waste should never be placed in the trash, poured down the drain, incinerated or dumped on the ground as it would pollute the wild. When you sort your garbage, so you spare the environment. Hazardous waste should always be returned to special treatment, and the options for delivery other than by caretake system, see below.
