In a large part of Haarwijk-Oost, we will collect waste paper and cardboard on a different day. We will send these residents a letter by post on 11 June informing them of this change.

What will change?

Paper collection in much of Haarwijk East was always every first Saturday of the month. That will be changed to every third Friday from Friday 21 June of the month. 

Old collection day

New collection day

Any first Saturday of the month


Saturday, 1 June was the last time paper containers were emptied on the first Saturday of the month.

Any third Friday of the month


Retrieved from Friday 21 June for the first time, you can have your paper container emptied on the third Friday of the month.

 Note ->  Please always put your paper container at the collection point before 7.30 am. The collection days of VGF and PMD containers will not change.

Why a different collection day for paper?

For many years, a regular group of volunteers from Wandelsportvereniging de Haartippelaars joined us in collecting paper in a large part of Haarwijk-Oost. As they are stopping this and Waardlanden is taking over, the paper collection day is changing.

Do you live in the Haar district but are unsure whether this change applies to you?

You can find your personal waste calendar. On this calendar, you can see when we collect your waste and raw materials. In our app, you can set it to notify you when one of your containers can be taken away. Then you will never forget. We also share important messages there, such as changes in the collection routes or collection days. And you can quickly and easily make reports and a bulky waste appointment. Don't have our app yet?
