How to dispose of your waste?
Put your residual waste on the street side of the pavement on Wednesday and Saturday between 06:00 and 07:30. If you take out your residual waste outside these hours, you risk a fine of at least € 100.
The containers for paper/cardboard and glass can be found across from Grote Bickersstraat 8.
- 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: Call 14 020 to make an appointment free of charge.
- Take your items to a Waste Collection Point (‘Afvalpunt’): The Waste Collection Point for your neighbourhood is Seineweg 1.
