You can take rubbish and bulky items to the tip on Route de Bourg Saint Maurice past the Barrage de Tignes. You can also contact the Municipalité de Val d’’Isère technical services, who offer weekly waste collection. You can contact the relevant department by phone here: 04 79 40 27 00.

Insurance is an essential requirement – you must have valid household insurance for your property and make sure to declare your cellar, ski locker and garage box. Your insurance must include civil liability cover for owner occupied and non-owner occupied.

During winter in Val d’Isère, mechanical snow clearing is handled by two independent companies throughout Val d’Isère. However, manual snow clearing is carried out by the building caretaker, cleaning companies or independent contractors. If necessary, we can clear snow from mountain roads. 

Several rules apply, and the simple majority, the so-called majority in Article 24, corresponds to the majority of votes cast by co-owners who are present or represented at the general meeting of co-owners, as well as those who have voted by post. Therefore, abstentions are not taken into account.  The absolute majority consists of 50% of the ownership shares/voting rights plus 1, of all co-owners.  Ownership shares correspond to the percentage of the property owned by each of co-owner.When the general meeting of co-owners has not decided by the majority set out in the previous article but the project has obtained at least a third of all votes cast by co-owners in the trustee, the same meeting decides by the majority set out in Article 24 by immediately proceeding to a second vote.

Double majority:  This decision must first be approved by a majority of all co-owners, who must also own at least two thirds of all co-owner ownership shares. When the general meeting of co-owners has not decided by the majority set out in the first paragraph of Article 26 but the project has been approved by at least half of co-ownership trustee members who are present, represented or having voted by post, representing at least a third of all co-owner votes, the same meeting decides by the majority of co-owner votes by immediately proceeding to a second majority vote as set out in Article 25. 

Work may only be carried out in the inter-season periods of May-June and September-November, from Monday to Saturday between 7.30 am and 7.30 pm, but not on Sundays or bank holidays.

At Val d’Isère Agence, we help property developers with vertical extension projects. A vertical elevation provides an opportunity to create new usable floorspace, which consists of adding another storey to a building or extending an existing one. In concrete terms, it involves removing all or part of the roof and replacing it with a timber frame storey. This is a technical and innovative solution that responds to a number of housing issues and helps create additional space in a sustainable way.
