Bonus for waste collection by cargo bike (professional)

Bonus for waste collection by cargo bike (professional)

The City of Brussels grants a premium to any business, commercial or catering (Horeca) company on its territory that decides to sign a new contract for the collection of waste with a cargo bike by a collector registered in the Brussels Capital Region.

The specific goals of this measure are:

  • Reducing CO2 emissions and noise pollution in the city
  • Promoting the use of sustainable means of transport
  • Facilitating the separate collection and revaluation of (organic) waste by professionals
