Waste Policy

The municipality of Geldrop-Mierlo wants to separate as much waste as possible so that less residual waste needs to be incinerated. Separated waste can be reused and is a valuable raw material in the circular economy.

Waste is an important issue for the livability of our municipality. Therefore, our waste policy focuses on a clean and sustainable living environment.

Separating waste 

In Geldrop-Mierlo we separate household waste. This means this for you as a resident:

  • Different types of waste are collected separately at home. Some waste streams you can take away yourself to a facility in the neighborhood. Visit www.cure-afvalbeheer.nl for practical information, such as the waste calendar, how to apply for a municipal pass or mini-container, and the locations of waste facilities.
  • You need to separate your waste correctly. Unsure where your waste belongs? You can find a handy separation guide at www.afvalscheidingswijzer.nl.
  • Proper separation pays off! The municipality of Geldrop-Mierlo works with the Diftar system. This means that you pay more for residual waste than for separated waste. For a detailed explanation of the costs of waste, see Waste charges.
