In Geldrop-Mierlo, you can hand in diapers and incontinence products separately at the waste recycling point. In the other municipalities, this may, in appropriate quantities and in combination with other waste, be disposed of with the residual waste.

The collection points for diapers and incontinence products are as follows:

Geldrop:

• Waste recycling point Geldrop

Mierlo:

• The underground container on the corner at 't Schrijverke (Luchen)
• The container at Sporthal de Weijer: this is outside when the sporthal is opened (daily from 9AM to 5PM) and is collected at night.
• The containers at all daycare facilities. NOTE: these containers can only be used by the employees and customers of the daycare facilities.

What happens to the waste?

The waste-to-energy plant in the Netherlands which recycles diapers, processes used diapers into fertilizer and new plastic products. Processed diapers are also partly used in the generation of (bio)energy.
