Anywhere in Amsterdam // no fixed address

How it works

Clean and dry paper and cardboard go in the paper bin — flatten boxes first. Greasy or wet cardboard (a pizza box) is no longer paper: general waste. Drink cartons do not belong here either.

Careful

paper beside a full container is still dumping. that costs at least €110.
