About us
How it all started
In 2007, enthusiastic entrepreneur Rik Dieteren started evictions in Roermond. Due to the high degree of customer focus, he soon started to offer additional services, including storage and removals.
Over the years, not only the offering grew, but also the team and Rik continued to provide customers with the best possible care. Rik Dieteren Woningontruiming en Verhuizingen is now an established name as a Certified Mover, who is known and trusted in Roermond and the surrounding area.
Establishment of the Waste Collection Service
In 2020, Covid-19 created a huge demand for smaller evictions and waste collection. Many people cleared out attics, basements and garages and chose to stand in line for hours at the recycling center, rent a trailer and ask family or acquaintances for help.
With our years of knowledge and experience, the establishment of the first and only Waste Collection Service in the Netherlands quickly became a reality! Started in Limburg, expanded towards North Brabant and grew organically to the other provinces.
From Roermond we monitor the quality of our services and regularly consult with our colleagues in the country. All our teams have years of experience so that you can get rid of your waste without any worries.
We offer waste removal for both private homes and businesses. We are a private organization with the mission: “To make the living and working environment of our customers more pleasant by efficiently relieving waste.”
Recognizable?
Everyone collects a lot of stuff over the years. Before you know it, your garage is full of old junk or your basement or attic is barely passable. You’ve been wanting to get started with it for some time, but you just can’t bring yourself to do it. What’s holding you back?
- “I can’t find anyone to help me.”
- “We don’t have a trailer and it won’t fit in the car.”
- “I don’t have my own transportation at all..”
- “It’s in the attic, but I can’t drag it down myself.”
- “I have lost the overview: what is allowed to go to the recycling center?”
- “Our entire archive is full, but no one wants to take this away.”
This is where we come to the rescue! You select a desired day and time in our agenda.
We take care of the lifting and carrying work, dispose of everything neatly and deliver it broom clean. Goodbye waste, hello tidy house (or office)!
Fast service, easy payment
We are a private company and provide our services for a fee. We are not part of the municipality, recycling centre, bulky waste or any other municipal authority.
You can quickly gain insight into the costs via our website or our helpdesk. Our team will review the situation with you on site and get to work immediately after your approval.
Private customers can easily pay by pin afterwards. Business customers can pay afterwards by means of an invoice (if indicated in advance when booking).
Let me introduce you
Stefan
Stefan is an enthusiastic go-getter, creative in coming up with solutions and he loves relieving people’s worries. He lives with his wife and daughter in the countryside in the Gouda region, where he enjoys the outdoors, with a nice campfire or a nice barbecue.
“Disposing of your waste poses many challenges. Too heavy, not the right transport, no time. I love solving these problems for people!”
Bert
Hello, I’m Bert, 32 years old. I have been doing this work with great pleasure for over 2 years.
What I like about my job is that every day is a different challenge and that I see happy and grateful people every day when we leave. Because we help people who are unable or unable to dispose of their belongings/waste themselves.
Ab
My name is Ab Benaskar, I am 38 years old, I am married and have two children and I live in Utrecht.
I have been working at the Waste Collection Service for a year now. I am responsible for the two following districts, the Utrecht region and the North Holland region. The nice thing about my job is that I meet new people every day and that makes my work very enjoyable. Ultimately, my job is to ensure that the customer gets rid of his or her waste. Fortunately, that always works. And we often even come by the same day to collect the waste from the customer.
I visit companies and private customers every day, and business customers are increasingly becoming better at finding us. But also just the sober student who is moving, and I ensure that he or she is relieved by taking the waste with him.
One day I clean up a customer’s entire garden, and then a few hours later I pick up a refrigerator from a customer. That makes it so diverse and extra fun. The word waste can be used very broadly, but that does not mean that we actually throw away the waste we have collected from the customer or take it to the waste processor. Fortunately, in most cases the collected waste is given a second life. I mainly work with thrift stores and small foundations in the city of Utrecht. Unfortunately, there is a growing group that cannot afford a washing machine or dryer if it breaks down. I regularly come across usable washing machine(s) or dryers, and by donating them to the foundation, they ultimately end up with the people who need them most.
Jacobs Heteren Verhuizingen en Transporten BV
Floris and his team of enthusiastic movers have been active in the moving industry for years. From Heteren they carry out removals and various transports every day.
Since September 2023, they have been the executive force behind Afvalophaaldienst.nl in the Gelderland region.
From our experience in moving, we are already very familiar with dealing with large, heavy items. Because we drive a few cars through the region every day for various assignments, collecting waste is a nice addition. We try to find a new destination for as many items as possible. For example, a still working washing machine goes to someone with a small budget whose washing machine has just broken down, clothes go to the clothes bank, blankets and bedding go to the animal shelter.
Will you wave when you see us driving?
Melvin Drenthen and his team
Melvin previously worked for waste processor Ter Horst, so Melvin saw what was thrown away every day that was still usable and salable! As a result, Melvin started his own thrift store. What has now become, 10 years later, an organization with 3 locations. In addition to the thrift store, Melvin Drenthen carries out house clearances every day in the east of the Netherlands.
Melvin thinks it is a good combination to combine the waste collection service with the usable goods that are collected daily for the thrift store.
This is a win-win situation for both the environment, the customer and our organization!

Vriendelijk, kundig en snel, een aanrader! PM pas later op de webpagina als je doorklikt bij de bestelling zie je de daadwerkelijke prijzen (bijv. dat je per verdieping tillen ook nog 20 euro per verdieping erbij betaalt) maar los daarvan … More een zeer goede ervaring.

We maakten 's avonds laat een afspraak en de volgende ochtend konden ze al bij ons op de stoep staan! De prijs online is ook exact wat we afgerekend hebben. Dat is misschien licht aan de prijzige kant, maar daar staat wel een top service … More tegenover.
De avond van tevoren kregen we nog een mailtje met een tijdvak van een half uur, en een half uur voordat onze bank werd opgehaald werden we nog netjes gebeld. Heel fijn! En daarnaast ook gewoon een super vriendelijke vader en zoon die goed op andere meubels/muren letten tijdens het weghalen van je spullen 🙂 Bedankt! - Frank Plaatsman ★★★★★ in de afgelopen week

Belden netjes een dag vantevoren om tijdsindicatie aan te geven en de ochtend zelf ook. Kwamen precies op aangegeven tijdstip. Wasmachine netjes en voorzichtig van 3 hoog met een smalle trap afgevoerd.
Dank!
