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 waste container is lost or broken, you can contact Cure Afvalbeheer customer service via 040 - 2500 130.
Note: You could be charged for this.
Your municipality decides your waste collection times. Our vehicles depart at 06:30. Make sure your container is at the public road in time. You can enable notifcations in the Cure Afval app.
New residents of an existing or new built home can request or trade their waste container for free within 3 months after registering. You can do this with our customer service. You need to be registered at the address. After 3 months you will pay €25,- per container for trading. In this case, you'll also pay for the delivery if it's concerning waste containers for a new build.
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 the Valkenswaard 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 6.30.
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. The costs are €25,00. Trading is free when you move houses, but only if the request is made within 3 months after moving. 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.
