The Entsorgungs- und Servicebetrieb Bocholt (ESB) has announced that the dates for refuse collection will be postponed due to the "Day of German Unity" on 3 October. The residual waste bins will be emptied one day later after the holiday.
The same applies to the paper bins from the R, S and T/Z areas and the yellow bins from the G, H and J/Z areas. On the Monday before the "Day of German Unity", the waste containers will be emptied as usual.
Waste containers and yellow bins must generally be made available by 6 a.m. on the day of collection, according to the ESB.
