If you move house, you must notify the municipality where you will be living. If you continue to live in a municipality or move to a municipality where we collect household waste, we will automatically be informed of your move. So you do not have to arrange this yourself.
Environment pass
Every household in the municipalities of Gorinchem, Hardinxveld-Giessendam, Molenlanden and Vijfheerenlanden has an environmental pass. With this pass, you can open the collection containers for residual waste and VGF waste in your municipality, if the pass has been activated for this purpose. The environmental pass also gives you access to all our waste collection points. > Check waardlanden.nl/milieupas.
Are you moving to a newly built house?
The municipality will pass on the new addresses to us. You can then apply to us for an environmental pass and the (raw material) containers belonging to your home. For this you can contact with our customer contact centre. We will be happy to help you.
Are you moving to an existing property?
The previous occupant left the environmental pass in the house. If you do not find an environmental pass, please contact us immediately. We will block the old pass linked to your address and you will receive a new pass within 5 working days. You can use contact with our customer contact centre. We will be happy to help you.
A clean neighbourhood starts with you!
Put your rubbish in the collection containers in your neighbourhood. This keeps the neighbourhood tidy and clean and prevents litter and vermin. It is not allowed to put rubbish and belongings next to the collection container. You pay high clean-up costs for this offence. > Check out waardlanden.nl/schone-neighbourhood.
Waste calendar
If you live in a low-rise building with (commodity) containers, you naturally want to know on which days you can have them emptied. You can easily check this in the online waste calendar or in the Waardlanden app.
Waardlanden app
If you move to a new address in one of the Waardlanden municipalities you can of course continue to use the Waardlanden app. You will then only need to change your address details under 'Settings' in the app. For more information about the handy Waardlanden app, go to waardlanden.nl/app.
Your old home
Of course, you want the old home to be left tidy for the new occupants. Here are a few tips to take care of this:
- Have the containers emptied again before you move. Check the Waardlanden app or online waste calendar to see when this is possible.
- Do not use the containers after they have been emptied for the last time. Clean them and put the separated waste in a separate rubbish bag. You can dispose of these later in the collection containers nearby or at your new address.
- Do you still have items for the environmental street? You can use your environmental pass until the removal date you have given to the municipality.
- Leave the environmental pass from your old home in the property.
