Hand in garden and park waste (green waste) for disposal


If you do not want to compost leaves, grass or shrub cuttings yourself, you can dispose of them as garden waste at the recycling and green waste stations.

Garden waste up to a maximum of 1 m³ per delivery can be handed in at all recycling stations and green stations. Tree trunks and stumps over 10 cm are only accepted at the Blockland station. Garden waste over 1 m³ is subject to a charge and can only be disposed of at the Blockland recycling station.

This is garden waste:

  • Windfall fruit, leaves, grass, tree and shrub cuttings
  • Tree trunks or stumps - everything up to 10 centimeters in diameter and a maximum length of 2 meters

This is not garden waste:

  • Kitchen waste, construction timber (e.g. fences, palisades, sandboxes), animal litter, turf, stones and soil

Requirements

  • The green waste comes from a private household that is connected to the municipal waste disposal system.
  • The delivery of waste and recyclable materials is only permitted with vehicles with a permissible total weight of up to 3.5 tons
  • The delivery of waste and recyclable materials must be sorted by type and free from harmful contamination and adhesions.

What documents do I need?

  • Official proof of identity or fee notice (original)

    In justified cases, the joint presentation of the official proof of identity and the fee notice may be requested.

  • Declaration of waste origin

    Upon request, the deliverers must sign a declaration stating their name, address including telephone number and presenting official proof of identity, in which the exact private origin of the waste and/or recyclables is stated and confirmed.
