"Garbage truck comes when Antwerp resident sleeps": nighttime waste collection in 130 extra streets starting in 2027

Starting next year, waste collection will occur at night in 130 additional streets in Antwerp, aiming to reduce daytime traffic disruption. The selected streets include those with high traffic, tram and bus routes, and areas with delivery time restrictions. This initiative, led by Ken Casier (N-VA), prioritizes safety and livability by minimizing conflicts between waste trucks and other road users. Residents will be informed about changes to their collection schedule, and an online map is available for checking updates.
