Daily life in Trento

First steps with the municipality

1. Residence registration

   The declaration is filed online with SPID or CIE through the national registry or the municipal services, or at the registry desk on Via Belenzani or the circoscrizione offices, by appointment booked on the municipal website («Prenota appuntamento»). Proof of title to the dwelling is required; the local police verify the address.

2. Electronic identity card

   Booking on the Interior Ministry's CIE agenda or from the municipal website; issued at the desk and delivered by post. The CIE also gives access to provincial online services.

3. Health and provincial services

   Choosing a GP goes through the provincial health agency (APSS), online or at its desks; the hospital is the Santa Chiara. Nurseries, schools, contributions and benefits are managed by the Province through its desks and online services portal.

Waste, water, services

Waste collection is by Dolomiti Ambiente and is door-to-door across the municipality: organic, paper, light packaging, glass and residual waste are put out on the days of your zone's calendar; residual waste goes in a personal chipped bin and the pay-as-you-throw tariff depends on the number of emptyings, so sorting well pays. The collection centres (CRM) take bulky items, garden waste and electronics. Trento's recycling rate is consistently among the highest of Italian provincial capitals.

Tap water comes from mountain springs, is drinkable and of excellent quality; public fountains are numerous. Healthcare is run by the provincial APSS, with the Santa Chiara hospital in the city and Villa Igea; the new hospital complex is under construction.
