About WMD DrinkwaterArranging water
Arrange water for your Noordenveld rental in three steps
Renting in Noordenveld usually means dealing with WMD Drinkwater, unless your landlord arranges water for you. These three steps follow the order of a typical move: settle who holds the account, confirm and register the address with WMD Drinkwater, then record the key-day reading and close the account at the home you are leaving.
Check who arranges the water
Look in your Noordenveld tenancy agreement for water in the rent or the service charges. If the landlord holds the WMD Drinkwater account, you do not register yourself.
Confirm and register with WMD Drinkwater
Run WMD Drinkwater's address check with your postcode and house number, then register from the date you receive the keys with the opening meter reading.
Record the reading and close the old account
Photograph the meter and its number on key day, submit the reading to WMD Drinkwater, and report the move at your previous address separately.
The supplier
WMD Drinkwater for renters in Noordenveld
WMD Drinkwater is the regional drinking-water supplier for much of Drenthe. Its moving process lets renters prepare early and add the actual handover reading later. For renters, the key questions are who pays the supplier, which meter belongs to the home, and which readings apply at key handover.
Where WMD Drinkwater says it supplies
Drenthe is not served by WMD alone: Waterbedrijf Groningen and Vitens also serve parts of the province. WMD itself directs uncertain customers to Vewin's postcode check. Confirm the full address, particularly in the north and west of the province.
