Municipality of Amstelveen: paying the waste collection charge

You must pay a waste collection charge (afvalstoffenheffing) to the Amstelland municipal taxes for the collection and disposal of your household waste. You will receive a letter from Gemeentebelastingen Amstelland. In Amstelveen you pay a fixed annual amount based on your household.

Rules fixed annual amount

The rates based on your household apply for a full year.
If you move outside the municipality, the assessment will automatically be reduced. However, you must register at your new address.
If you move within the municipality, you will not receive a reduction. You will also be disposing of household waste at your new address.
If the size of your household increases or reduces during the year, it will not affect the amount of your waste collection charge.

Exemption

If you are unable to pay the waste collection charge, you may be eligible for an exemption. For more information, visit the Amstelland Municipal Tax website.
