Household waste

You can dispose of your household residual waste in the underground residual waste containers in your neighborhood. Residents of stacked houses/apartments and residents of the Fortress in Brielle who have opted for an underground residual waste container can also dispose of their residual waste in the underground residual waste container in the neighborhood.

You will need your environmental pass to do this. If you use minicontainers, you put your waste out on a fixed day. In the AfvalWijzer you will find an overview of when you should dispose of which mini-container.

There are also separate waste containers in your neighborhood for paper and cardboard, plastic, glass and textiles. Check which bin your waste belongs in via Afvalscheidingswijzer.nl.

If the waste is too large or heavy to put in a garbage bag or container, it is bulky waste and other rules apply.

Do you have a report about trash containers in your neighborhood? If so, please contact our customer contact center at 14 0181.

What should I do?

Residual waste, biodegradable waste, bulky household waste and plastic waste packaging (PMD) are collected door-to-door every other week. With the exception of residual waste and GFT waste, it is possible to hand in your waste at the Environmental park.

If your trash is picked up on a set day, it is important that you put it out the right way:

Tips on using underground containers

  • Use a regular gray trash bag and don't overfill it. You can also use pedal bin liners.
  • Your waste will not be registered.
  • Bring trash that does not fit in the dumpster to the Environmental park.
  • Do not place trash next to the dumpster (you risk a fine).
  • Please report if the container is full or if your environmental card is not working.
  • Do not park a car in front of the underground container. This will prevent the container from being emptied.
  • Do not use the container before 8 a.m. and after 9 p.m. This prevents noise pollution for your fellow residents in your living area.
