GFT stands for "groente-, fruit en tuinafval" (vegetables, fruits and garden waste). This concerns natural or organic waste like fruit peels, vegetable scraps, weeds, mowed grass, small trimmings and food leftovers.

All household appliances (big or small) that use batteries, electricity or gas are in the appliances category. Examples are a washing machine, a stove, a television or a mobile phone. 

Construction waste is a collective term for basically all material that comes out of a renovation or demolition. Examples are rubble, plaster, wood, sand/soil, roofing, metal, sleepers, garden timbers, and asbestos/eternite.

PBD means plastic packaging, cans and drinking cartons. Examples are plastic bottles, soda cans or cartons of milk, yoghurt and fruit juice.

Any paper and cardboard waste is referred to as (scrap) paper. Newspapers, cartboard boxes and advertising flyers are some examples.

Bulky waste is bulky household waste that is too big or too heavy for a trash bag or container. Examples are old carpeting or broken furniture.

Household waste (general/residual waste) means waste from around the house that can't be separated to be reused or recycled. For example: cigarettes, cat litter, rubber or cork. 

The containers stay normally open throughout New Year's.

Small chemical waste (klein chemisch afval, KCA) is residual waste containing chemicals that are bad for health and environment, like lead, mercury or organic solvents. Batteries, spray cans, gasoline and terpentine are examples of small chemical waste.

By plastic packaging we mean all empty plastic bags, vials, cups and lids. It only refers to packaging so old toys, video tapes and other plastic objects are not a part of this category.

Glass waste refers to glass packaging like empty jars of peanut butter, pasta sauce, deodorant rollers, wine bottles and perfume.

Asbestos is a material that, in the past, was used for construction material, like corrugated sheets and cement. Today it's no longer allowed to use asbestos, but it's often still present in older houses. For example in roofing, walls and window sills. 

Textile waste consists of old clothes, shoes, towels and other textiles like bedding and curtains.
