Sorting
According to the Waste Act, all residential properties must join mixed waste management organised by the municipality. This also applies to holiday homes. Housing companies, detached house properties and holiday homes can join waste management using either a property-specific or jointly owned container.
Pack the waste to avoid getting the container dirty. Pack glass and dusty waste particularly well.
