Janneke de Bruin cleans up litter in her municipality. What started as a personal action quickly grew into a beautiful neighbourhood initiative: the HaGi Waste Pickers. Read her inspiring story here.

In Hardinxveld-Giessendam, Waardlanden has been collecting waste paper and cardboard in the evening with the help of church volunteers for years. As Wednesday 5 November is Thanksgiving Day, no paper will be collected that evening. Your paper and cardboard will therefore be collected a day earlier, on Tuesday evening 4 November.

Celebrate Sinterklaas sustainably with our toy swap markets! In the run-up to Sinterklaas, we organise toy swap markets in the region together with local partners. Bring your unused toys and swap them for something new!

A strong gust of wind or an autumn storm can blow over a container in no time. Litter then blows through the street, into the ditch or into nature. This is messy and dangerous. With a few simple preparations, you can keep your container and waste in place - all year round.
