Please note: the heat plan is in effect from June 19 to June 23.

Are we emptying your container during that period? Then place your container at the drop-off point before 7:00 AM. Are you visiting a recycling center or the Kringloopplein? These have adjusted opening hours: from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM. 

Adjusted collection and opening hours

 

Separating waste. What works and what doesn't for you?

The municipalities of Gorinchem, Hardinxveld-Giessendam, Molenlanden, and Vijfheerenlanden are collaborating with Waardlanden on the preparation of a new waste plan.

To achieve this, we want to better understand what helps residents in their daily practice: what goes well and what do residents find difficult when separating and disposing of waste?

Join in and fill out the questionnaire below.
