Containers
Residents of a one-family or upstairs apartment with backyard, use a grey waste container for residual waste and a green container for organic waste.
If you live in a flat or apartment, you can use the collective (underground) containers in your neighborhood.
Supermarkets and shopping centers have collective containers for glass, plastic waste and textiles.
If your container is lost or broken, you can request a new one for free. Make notification through the online form or contact customer service via 040 - 2500 130.
Your municipality decides your waste collection times. Our vehicles depart at 07:30. Make sure your container is at the public road in time. You can enable notifcations in the Cure Afval app.
As a new resident of an existing or new built home, you can request your containers through the telephone with our customer service. You should be officially registered to your address. There are no additional costs.
It is not always possible for people with a physical impairment to get the container to the collection place. An 'exception sticker' allows you to offer your waste outside of your house, on municipal ground. If you are eligible, you can request a sticker through our customer service: 040 - 2500 130. Please list your name, address, phone number and the reason you're requesting the sticker.
On Eindhoven's waste calendar page, you'll see when waste is collected in your neighbourhood. You'll also find a holiday schedule. On so-called catch-up days around holidays, collection might be on another time than usual. Make sure your waste is outside at the right time. Our vehicles depart at 7.30.
- Place your container with the handle facing away from the street.
- The waste container cannot be heavier than 70 kg and the lid should close entirely.
- Big hard materials like tree trunks, wood, metals and construction waste cannot be disposed in your waste container. You can bring them to our waste recycling points.
- When a road is under construction, offer your waste somewhere reachable for our trucks, outside the road block.
Has your container not been emptied? Report it through the web form or contact Cure Waste Management customer service within two working days.
NB: We check all requests against our emptying log for your neighbourhood. If it turns out we were in your street on the emptying date, we will not come back an extra time.
For Eindhoven and Geldrop-Mierlo this is 7:30.
For Valkenswaard this is 6:30.
Yes, you can trade your waste container (kliko) for another size for free. To do so, contact Cure Waste Management customer service at 040 - 2500 130.
You can choose from two sizes:
140 liter
- 50,5 cm width, 55.5 cm depth and 110 cm height
- without waste, the weight is 10kg
- the container holds the contents of about 3 waste bags
240 liter
- 58 cm width, 75,5 cm depth and 110 cm height
- without waste, the weight is 13,5 kg
- the container holds the contents of 4 to 5 waste bags
In case of frost, there's a risk some containers can't be fully emptied because of frozen waste.
Cure shakes the containers extra, but cannot increase or the containers will break. It's not of use for us to come back after a report when the weather situation hasn't changed. The container still won't empty fully.
We kindly request you present your waste container on time on the next collection day.
For Eindhoven and Geldrop-Mierlo, this is 7:30.
For Valkenswaard, this is 7:00.
