Descriptiontext

IVOO is a Belgian afvalintercommunale (waste intercommunale) — a public, non-profit intermunicipal organization that manages household waste collection, recycling, and disposal for the Oostende and Ommeland region. It is mandated by the Flemish government and collectively owned by six municipalities (Bredene, Gistel, Ichtegem, Middelkerke, Oostende, and Oudenburg), serving more than 145,000 inhabitants plus second-home owners and seasonal tourists. The organization also operates a regional household waste incineration installation and offers asbestos removal services.

IVOO's core service portfolio spans house-to-house collection of residual waste, bulky waste, paper and cardboard, PMD packaging, organic (GFT) waste, glass and textiles, alongside a network of physical recycling parks (recyclageparken). Supporting tools include the Recycle App and an online Ophaalkalender (collection calendar) for resident scheduling, a sorting-assistance service, the Kringwinkel Kust second-hand reuse shop, and educational programs for schools and associations. The technology base is operational — collection logistics, recycling processing, and incineration — rather than software-defined.

IVOO is funded through municipal taxes and government allocations rather than commercial pricing. Its revenue model is a managed-services arrangement on behalf of its six founding municipalities, with no commercial customers, no disclosed revenue, and no external investors. The organization has 11–50 employees and is governed under its inter-municipal mandate, with Steven Nagels listed as Chairman.
