garbage collector HVC into sensors with dzVents?

My garbage collector is HVC. And I wanted that info into my domoticz.
A sample adress: Venuslaan 85 zipcode: 3318 JZ city: Dordrecht.
Info about the address:
http://inzamelkalender.hvcgroep.nl/push ... snummer=85
Collecting days:
http://inzamelkalender.hvcgroep.nl/push ... snummer=85
it returned JSON and I can read it. But now I need to know how to transform that info into sensors?
Is dzventz capable of doing that or is there a better way? And maybe someone with that knowledge can point me in a right direction or has a sample.

@Rembo, if I look at the JSON return, I see 4 different collection types (Plastic, Green, Other and Paper) with each 5 dates. Some of the dates are double so effective unique dates are 2 or 3 per collection type.
dzVents is capable of collecting this information and put it into sensors. If you tell me how you want this information presented I want to give this a try.
So do you want this information in a text Sensor or an alert Sensor or a separate sensor for each collection type or something else ? And do you want all unique dates or only the next one ?

I use also Dashticz and there they have defined options to display data for many different garbage companies, including hvc. I wouldn't know how to transform that for use in domoticz directly.

I don't think it's handy to have a sensor for different collections. 1 text sensor with the next collecting looks good to me.
or maybe one per collection (and one that combines them with the next collecting?)
do you have suggestions what kind of sensor is handy? I think a text, then I make a notification at 7 pm the day before)

Ok, let me play a little bit with the idea.
