Bus/Financial - Real Estate / Condominium fees/abbreviation
Norwegian term or phrase: nedg.cont.
Hi - I'm having trouble finding the expanded phrase for "nedg.cont." which appears in a list of condomium fees - the full entry is "tømming nedg.cont." so emptying of (some type of) container.

Thanks for your help!

Explanation:
Alas, the low-profile Discussion Entrant or (Scots) Intrant is wrong again with only half an answer.

In a similar vein, my relative's favo(u)rite toy of a 'garbage truck' is called in BrE a refuse lorry.

Please note that a condo/minium in the UK is called a commonhold, in Canada and Oz/NZ, strata title and, in Spain, horizontal property.
