Domestic waste charge Nijkerk | GBLT gemeente- en waterschapsbelastingen

GBLT sends a tax assessment for domestic waste collection to the occupant or user of a plot. You will always receive an assessment even if you do not dispose of any waste.

The domestic 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.

To find out how much you have to pay please visit the rates page.

Is remission possible?

Are you unable to pay this rate? Then you can request remission. Do you meet the rules and conditions for remission? Then you do not have to pay.

Questions about the container or waste collection card?

Please contact the municipality of Nijkerk, telephone number 033-247 22 22. Or visit the (Dutch only) page requesting or exchanging a container.
