Together through the seasons: tips to suit the time of year
Throughout the year, things change in and around the house. Each season calls for something different - from tidying up and gardening to preparing for cold, wind or holidays. This sometimes raises questions: what to do where, what to do when, and how to make it easy on yourself? With 'Together through the seasons', we help you at the right time. You will find tips to suit the time of year.

Monitoring and enforcement
Our supervisors help prevent serious pollution. They sometimes come across serious pollution, such as rubbish next to collection containers or dumped waste in public areas. This is a dirty sight, creates litter, attracts pests and can disrupt collection. A container with sidelines can sometimes not be emptied, causing trouble for the whole neighbourhood. Our supervisors do all they can to stop that from happening. Do you have questions about waste or raw materials? Feel free to speak to our supervisors. They are happy to think along with you.
