andyh4 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Yes it is for the refuse collection.Some communes have started to split these costs out from Taxe d'Habitation - I guess yours is one.Whether you are there 1 week or 52 weeks, the truck still passes the end of your garden and has to be manned as if you were there.Sorry but reality has to strike occasionally.

brit Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 So are you saying this isn't an extra tax but is in fact just part of habitation tax that we pay for normally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh4 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 It is being treated separately. In theory your TdH should go down. I would be surprised if it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suein56 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Our taxe d'ordures ménagères has always formed part of our taxe foncière. The rubbish removal part has a line of its own on the bill.Have you tried looking at your last foncière bill ? If the rubbish removal fee there bears any relation to the bill you have just received, then Bingo.Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 My ordures ménagères charge has always been a separate bill. Was once a year, but now twice.Mind you, we now have a very flashy new déchèterie that no doubt had to be funded somehow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F22730La redevance est encaissée :soit par la commune ou le groupement de communes,soit, sur décision de la collectivité concernée, par le concessionnaire du service.

Gardian Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 ........... and ours is done completely differently!It used to be a separate annual bill. Roughly E150 from memory. That was for a household of 2 adults - you paid proportionately more for 3+. All pretty fair.All of a sudden, with no consultation, it was changed to being levied as a % of your valeur locative (basically rateable value) & collected through the taxe fonciere (or it might be taxe d'hab, can't remember).Anyway, the upshot is that whilst we don't live in 'Le Chateau Gardian', our vl is above the commune average and accordingly we now pay nearly double what we used to pay.Less than amused, but you have to shrug your shoulders.
