Opening of the Hemonylaan Mobile Recycling Point

Come along to the Recycling Container! Don’t have a car, or do you find it too far to cycle to a recycling point in Amsterdam East or West? Then bring your recyclables to the local recycling point in De Pijp: the Mobile Recycling Container. The container is located on the corner of Hemonylaan and Hemonystraat, near the Lidl. It’s open every last Saturday of the month from 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm. The recycling container has been painted by local artist Hugo Kaagman. You can drop off small electrical appliances, wood, hard plastic, metal, cooking fat and oil (in sealed containers). At the container, you can get answers to questions about waste separation, a guide to waste collection points and contact details for the residents’ group De Schone Pijp. For more information on recycling and waste disposal, see www.amsterdam.nl/afval. Questions about the recycling container and/or De Schone Pijp can be sent to info@netwerkdepijp.nl. Admission is free and the event is suitable for everyone. The event runs from Saturday 31 January 2026 to Saturday 26 December 2026, with sessions held on the last Saturday of every month from 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm.
