Sorting streets
In some streets, we don’t collect household waste from outside your home. Instead, you bring it to the sorting street yourself. You need an access card for this.
How does a sorting street work?
A sorting street consists of underground containers for:
- Household waste
- GFT
- PMD
- Paper and cardboard
Above ground there are chutes with a lid.
- Open the lid with your access card.
- You do not need rubbish bags from the city.
- You may only throw GFT into the container in a biodegradable bag.
- Only use the sorting street between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. to avoid disturbing your neighbours’ sleep.

Who is allowed to use a sorting street?
Anyone with an access card. Your address determines if you have to use it.
How do you request an access card?
After moving house
Have you just moved house? After you have submitted your change of address, the district police officer will come by to check whether you live at that address. You will then automatically receive an EcoWerf access card by post. You do not need to request it yourself.
Do you need access urgently?
Do you need access sooner? Then you can request an access card yourself.

Second home
Is the residence a second home? Then you request an access card for the residents yourself.
