In 2023, the national annual road freight transport of secondary raw materials, municipal, and other wastes loaded in predominantly urban regions in Germany was recorded as 98.67 million metric tons. Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 shows a slight, consistent increase in this segment, with values escalating from 98.84 million metric tons in 2024 to 99.51 million metric tons by 2028. This represents an annual growth rate hovering around 0.17% during this period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Focus on sustainability and regulation changes could impact transportation dynamics and volumes.
- Technological advancements in waste management and recycling could alter transport requirements and optimize logistics.
- Urbanization and development policies will significantly influence waste generation and transportation strategies.
