Terms

Waste tax is part of your annual municipal taxes. You can pay your municipal taxes in 1 instalment or in 10 installments by direct debit.

Remission

Do you have little or no income? Then you can ask whether the municipality is okay with you not paying (part of) your waste levy. This is called a waiver. You can apply for a waiver online.

If you disagree with the way of taxation of your waste collection charges, you can object to this online or in writing.
