Sewer charge

What to do.

You do not receive a direct sewerage levy assessment from the municipality of Aalten but this is imposed and collected from you via the Waternota of Vitens NV.

The advance amounts you pay to Vitens NV also include a portion of the sewerage levy. The annual statement from Vitens NV will then include a statement of the sewerage charge in addition to the water consumption.
