Comments:
Comment from website: "We collect organic kitchen and garden waste separately in Zuidoost in the S-neighbourhood, W-neighbourhood, Geuzenveld and in Oost on IJburg, Java Eiland and Steigereiland." Further information from the link (translated) "In some streets you have to put your residual waste, paper and cardboard and vegetable, fruit and garden waste (GFT) in a wheelie bin on the street. You may put your waste out on the evening before collection day from 21.00 onwards. Make sure it is out by 07.00 on the day of collection." Bring point containers open with a chip system.
