Garbage cans

Grey bin for household waste that cannot be recycled, which can be emptied weekly if needed.

In addition to the grey bin 60-liter trash bags (gross volume) are available from customer service for 3€ and are picked up weekly.

Only those bags bearing the name of the City of Differdange and placed on the pavement on collection day will be picked up by the waste collection service.

Padlock

The grey trash can can be fitted with a locking system for 25€ (price of the padlock plus installation).

Replacement of the green and grey trash cans, as well as the padlock, is non-refundable once the trash can has been returned to the municipality.

Sorting = Saving

The municipal waste collection tax bill, issued every three months, consists of a connection fee (fixed fee) of 46.50€ and the number of actual grey bin pickups.

Remember to sort your waste. Because the less you use the grey bin, the lower your municipal tax bill will be. And the environment will thank you too.

In case of a change of address within the municipality, the waste containers must be taken with you to the new address, as the municipality does not guarantee the transfer of waste containers between the two addresses.

If you move out of the municipality or change your address in a residence with a communal garbage can system, the grey and green garbage cans used at the old address cannot be left as they are, but must be cancelled with the relevant department. The blue and brown garbage cans are not usually taken back by the municipality.
