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:

1. The City will collect it: Call 14 020 to make an appointment free of charge.
2. Take your items to a Waste Collection Point (‘Afvalpunt’): The Waste Collection Point for your neighbourhood is Rozenburglaan 1.
