Waste types

Would you like to know which waste belongs in which container? View each waste type below to find out where you can dispose of it and which rules apply. You can also use this page to request a new container or report a damaged one.

Containers

Most types of waste can be disposed of in an underground container or a communal collection container. Houses with gardens have a mini container for organic waste (fruit, vegetable and garden waste). In rural areas, many households also have a mini container for residual waste.
