The university has separated collection, environmentally-friendly processing and recycling of waste materials.
On March 1, 2024, Facility Services (CFM) concluded a contract for waste disposal with a new partner, namely Renewi.
Collection Schedule
The different waste flows have fixed collection days. The overview below shows which dates it concerns. Temporary additional waste containers can be ordered through your building's Service Desk. The manual for the disposal of industrial waste and hazardous waste is available via your building's waste contacts. This manual, among other things, describes what can and cannot be disposed of and how hazardous waste must be packaged and provided for collection.
NOTE: This is a temporary overview and is subject to change.
