Where should you put bulky waste and pruning waste?
- You should put bulky waste or pruning waste on the street near your home where it is easily accessible for the refuse collection lorry.
- Do you live in a dead end street? Then place the bulky waste on the corner at the beginning of the street.
- Do you take your mini-container(s) to a specific collection point? Then we would ask you to put your bulky waste in the same place.
- Make sure that your bulky waste or pruning waste does not pose a danger to road users and that the pavement is passable for disabled people or anyone with a pram.
- Do not put bulky waste on your own property or in the garden. We will not take it away.
- Make sure that the bulky waste is placed freely on the road, i.e. not against a tree or façade or an underground/above-ground collection container.
- Don't put the bulky waste behind parked cars. This will prevent unwanted damages.
- Are there road works? Please place the bulky waste before the road is broken.

- If you are putting out a bicycle, it should be unlocked. Also, attach a card to the bicycle to make it clear that it is intended to be taken away as bulky waste. Make sure the card is sturdy, weatherproof and clearly visible.
- Remove the battery from an electric bicycle. You can take the bicycle battery separately to one of our recycling centres or a special collection point.
- If you are putting your bulky waste out in (garbage) bags or boxes, please leave these open so that our staff can check to see what's in them.
