Practical tips and common mistakes

Rule: Material must not exceed the rim of the container. This applies to all types of containers and waste. Common mistakes: (1) Stacking materials above the rim – this is not allowed. (2) Not covering light materials like wood or cardboard – these can blow away. (3) Overloading so the container cannot be collected. Tips: Always keep 10-15 cm space below the rim, distribute weight evenly, and cover light materials with a tarp or net.

What do suppliers and experts say?

Suppliers are clear: 'The container must not exceed the rim. If material protrudes above the rim, we cannot transport the container safely', explains a supplier. 'We regularly see customers thinking they can fit more by stacking the material, but this only leads to problems.' Experts advise always keeping space between the material and the rim, especially with light materials that can blow away.
