Found something that can identify the offender?

If you found something that can identify the offender (name, address, etc.), call the commune and request a sanctioning agent.

Know who’s responsible

Some streets in Brussels are cleaned by the Agence Bruxelles Propreté, others by your municipality. Check who is in charge!

Spread awareness on social media

  • Post on your own channels
  • Or send us your pictures via Instagram: @brussel_poubelle

Don’t forget to include the exact location (street + commune).

Appreciate the heroes on the ground

  • Thank cleaning teams when you see them.
  • See someone littering? A polite, non-confrontational word can go a long way.
  • Dangerous behavior (throwing trash from windows, people under influence, etc.)? Call the police.

Join the clean city movement!

  • Sign up as a local ambassador via Wake Up Clean Up
  • Organize or join a cleanup action
  • Talk with neighbors about cleanliness and public hygiene
