A mobile crusher is a machine with which you can make construction and demolition waste smaller. If you use a mobile crusher this may cause nuisance. Therefore you have to report your work. You must notify the authorities in the municipality where you want to use the crusher. You can often do so online. Usually you have to notify your work a number of days in advance.

Notifying

When you notify your plans to use a mobile crusher (in Dutch) you supply among others the following data:

  • the address or the location where you want to use the mobile crusher
  • the name and address of the company and contact using the crusher
  • the amount and type of construction and demolition waste
  • the noise level of the mobile crusher (in decibels, dB)
  • when you intend to start the work and the duration
