As a professional business, why do I need to call before my visit to the recycling centre?

Companies and other businesses need to notify their visit in advance (by phone: 30 78 38 30).

They can only bring small quantities. The capacities of our containers need to be checked before the professional clients come in. We always try to ensure the best service possible and want to guarantee that every client can dispose of the waste he brings.

Thank you for your comprehension.

You can get relevant material such as the bags for the Valorlux collection,
SuperDrecksKëscht – boxes for the collection of problematic waste and special containers for the collection of grease, syringes (for free).
During your visit you can also take a look at our Second-Hand-shop. The residents of our member communes can take the items they like for free.
