Blankenberge removes 38 public green containers, but is investigating a more limited version

Blankenberge will remove 38 public green waste containers starting November 15 due to high costs and misuse, despite initial backlash over misinformation. The city is exploring a limited version of these containers. Residents can still use personal green waste containers, which are collected for a fee, and the recycling park remains available for larger volumes of waste. Access to the recycling park has increased from 12 to 18 free visits per year, accommodating more visitors daily.
