Waste management

Maastricht aims to become a zero-waste city. Together we can prevent unnecessary waste and separate any unavoidable waste for recycling and reuse. This allows us to turn waste into valuable new materials. Proper waste separation reduces residual waste, which benefits you and your wallet.

 

Each municipality establishes its own waste policy which sets out its priorities for household waste and its ways to achieve goals. Topics include communication, enforcement, costs and waste collection charges. Learn more about the process, timeline and ways to get involved at Afvalbeleid | Thuis in Maastricht (in Dutch).
