How to dispose of your waste?
You can dispose of your residual waste, paper/cardboard and glass in the waste containers in front of the building. These are the rules:
- Put your residual and plastic waste in the container marked: ’restafval’.
- Throw your paper and cardboard in the container marked: ‘papier’. Tear your cardboard boxes small before throwing them in. Cardboard boxes are never bulky waste.
- Only glass used for food and drinks packaging may be put in the container marked: ‘glas’.
- Is the container full or broken? Walk to another container to dispose of your waste.
If you place your waste next to the container, you risk a fine of at least € 100.

Bulky waste
- Bulky waste includes large items that don't fit in the container, such as appliances and furniture. Please note: large cardboard boxes are never bulky waste and belong in the container marked ‘papier’.
This is how you dispose of your bulky waste:
- The City will collect it: Place your bulky waste on the street side of the pavement after
- Take your items to a Waste Collection Point (‘Afvalpunt’): The Waste Collection Point for your neighbourhood is Toetsenbordweg 41.
