Business waste collection charge

Businesses and institutions in the municipality of Leusden must arrange their own waste collection. You can have it collected by a specialised company. Does your company or organisation only have a small amount of waste? Then you can also have it collected by the municipality. The waste must then resemble ordinary household waste in type and quantity. Please contact the municipality for more information.

In case of collection by the municipality, GBLT will send a tax assessment for business waste collection charges to the user of the premises. This may be an entire building, or just part of it. The municipality uses this money for the collection, removal and processing of waste.

The business waste collection charge consists of two parts:

  • A flat fee per annum.

This amount is stated on the tax assessment which we send at the beginning of the year. The flat fee is for all waste except residual waste. For example, for plastic and green waste. And for the bottle banks. You have no influence on this amount.

  • A fee for each time you present residual waste.

You pay for each time you dispose of waste. This is called a differentiated tariff, "diftar" for short. You can control these charges by separating your waste properly. That way, you will have less residual waste. We will send you a separate tax assessment for diftar after the year end. This means you will always pay this year's diftar in the next year.

Please refer to the rates page for the exact amounts.

Is remission possible?

Remission is not possible for business waste collection charge. It is however possible to pay in instalments.

    The business waste collection charge transfers with it. Next year, you will receive a new tax assessment for the new premises.
  • Does the business relocate to another municipality?
    You will have to pay until the company moves. We will send you a letter about this. Did you pay for the entire year in advance? Then we will refund part of this amount.

    You have to pay from the moment you reside in Leusden. You will receive a tax assessment for this.
