Configuration

The integration can be configured via the Home Assistant UI.

1. Go to Settings > Devices & services.
2. Click Add integration and search for aha region.
3. Select your Gemeinde.
4. Select the first letter of your street.
5. Select your street from the scraped website values.
6. Enter the house number and an optional house number suffix.
7. If aha requires an Abholplatz for the address, the flow will show the scraped options automatically.

You can still configure the component via configuration.yaml.

Go to https://www.aha-region.de/abholtermine/abfuhrkalender and search for your address. Rightclick the dropdown to select the street and click inspect. Expand the select in the sources, find and copy the value for your street.

Configure the component via configuration.yaml.

sensor:
  # aha region waste sensors
  - platform: aha_region
    gemeinde: "Hannover"
    strasse: "00152@Am Küchengarten / Linden-Mitte@Linden-Mitte" # value from dropdown
    hausnr: 11
    hausnraddon: "a" # optional, remove if not needed for your address!

Strasse and gemeinde need to be exactly like on the aha website.

Some places need to specify an Abholplatz, to get this search for your address and another dropdown to select the Abholplatz appears. Find your value in the sources like for your street:

This also needs to be exactly like on the website. Note the space at the end of the value!

sensor:
  # aha region waste sensors
  - platform: aha_region
    gemeinde: "Hannover"
    strasse: "00726@Dragonerstr. / Vahrenwald@Vahrenwald" # value from dropdown
    hausnr: 35
    abholplatz: "00726-0035 " # optional, remove if not needed for your address!

Example

You should now have a sensor with the next collection date for each waste type collected at the given address. Not all addresses have all four waste types.

The sensors update twice a day and the date will only change after the scheduled collection date. So if the waste collection is scheduled for today, the sensors will show today as next collection date and change tomorrow for the next cycle.

Notes

Works great with westenberg's Garbage Reminder blueprint 👍
