Fee notices and badges of the ESB come

In the next few days, around 45,000 fee stickers for the residual and organic waste garbage cans will be sent by post to all persons with property in Bocholt, together with the notices on property levies. The stickers are used to check whether the number of registered waste garbage cans corresponds to the number of garbage cans actually paid for. It is therefore also a good check for the owners.

New plaques for checking

While the notices for the property levies are sent out every year, this year the ESB is again sending out the plaques to reconcile the waste garbage can stock. This effort for all parties involved is comparable to an inventory; this is how the inventory of trash receptacles is reconciled. For the property owner, updating the plaques is also a good control. In this way, it is possible to quickly determine whether the garbage cans registered and paid for also correspond to the garbage cans that are actually present. Stickers are only available for the residual and organic waste garbage cans, as a fee only has to be paid for these. The paper and yellow garbage cans are still free of charge, which is why no stickers will be sent out for them.

The ESB asks you to note the following:

• Please check the notice directly. Do the stickers correspond to the garbage cans listed in the notice and the actual inventory? If there are any discrepancies, please contact the ESB.
• Stick the stickers on the top of the lid of the respective garbage can. In order for the stickers to adhere well, the lid should be clean and dry.
• The notices with the stickers will only go to owners or property managers. If tenants find that there are no new stickers on the garbage cans by the end of March, they are asked to notify the owner to ensure the garbage cans are emptied.
• Garbage cans will only be emptied with a valid sticker from 2023 starting in April.

If you have any questions, please contact the ESB at telephone: 02871/24 63 12.
