Did you know.
About 30% of our residual waste consists of organic waste and food scraps. Leave garden waste, apple cores, potato peelings and, for example, bones from the residual waste and put it in the green mini-container. Then we can turn it into compost and green gas.
Residual waste is the collective name for waste that we cannot (yet) separate. We burn this waste. Do you want to know what residual waste is? Here is an overview of what is and what is not allowed in the (underground) residual waste container.
Residual waste is all the waste that cannot yet be recycled. The waste is incinerated. Our goal? To separate our waste as best we can, to reduce the number of pounds of residual waste.
There is insufficient recycling capacity available for diapers. Therefore, diapers are allowed in the residual waste. The same goes for sanitary pads, incontinence pads and tampons.
Pizza boxes with leftover food or grease must be disposed of with the garbage. However, clean boxes of frozen pizzas can be disposed of with waste paper.
Used tissues and kitchen paper contain dirt and or grease. Photos , wallpaper or binders often contain plastic or tape. It all belongs in the residual waste
Aerosol cans belong in residual waste because they may contain residual propellant. The plastic cap can be disposed of with PBD
