Am I obliged to put my waste in the orange bag?

Food waste should always go in a closed orange bag.

If there is door-to-door collection where you live, your food waste must not be thrown directly into the orange container. Your orange bag, with or without its orange container, must be put out in front of your home on collection day.

If you live in a building where food waste is collected in large containers, you can put your tightly tied orange bags in the large orange container. This will be emptied once a week by a collector appointed by your residents’ association.
