Collection at home

Which type of waste is collected when? How do you have to sort waste?

Wood prunings can be collected from your home free of charge. You can ask the municipal services to do this.

Bulky refuse can be collected from your home (against payment). You can ask the municipal services to do this.

Practical information

You must purchase specific bags for various types of unsorted waste, biodegradable (GFT) and PMD.

In the sub-municipalities, we collect biodegradable waste in a container. You can have a container delivered, exchanged or picked up at home, free of charge.

Place a valid sticker on your container for biodegradable waste every year.

Take away waste yourself

Which type of waste can you take to the recycling centre?

Where can you deposit transparent glass bottles, jars and flasks?

Bring reusable textiles to a textile container. Where can you find the containers?

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.
