The essentials

Sort correctly, without hesitation

In Husseren-Wesserling, the collection is organized by the Community of communes of Vallée de Saint-Amarin. During your stay, use the containers identified in the gîte and deposit each waste in the correct flow.

The simplest rule: all packaging and paper goes into the yellow bin. They must be well emptied, placed in bulk and separated from each other.
