That's why people who bring this type of waste pay the costs themselves. This keeps things fair and helps us keep costs as low as possible for other residents.

Bulky waste that residents have collected at home is residual waste and is incinerated. This is unfortunate, because bulky household waste contains many valuable materials that can be reused. By charging a fee for this bulky waste collection service, the municipalities encourage residents to sort their bulky household waste, disassemble it at home, and dispose of it separately at the recycling center. This reduces the amount of incineration required, and allows for more recycling. This way, we ensure more circular and sustainable waste management in the region.
