I'm a simple emigrant and, continuing the topic of cleanliness, I will talk about garbage collection

In Germany, every house has different bins for different types of garbage, and in apartments, accordingly, several bags for collecting it. Germans take sorting quite seriously. For example, when discarding a paper bag with a plastic insert, different materials are separated from each other and end up in different containers. The same happens with the plastic caps from cardboard boxes. In some places the number of different containers can reach as many as eight, but I haven't seen that. More often the set is this: paper, food waste, plastic, and the rest. However, glass should not go into the "rest," you can place it next to it in a drawer. For example, in my building there is a cart (like in supermarkets) into which all jars and bottles should be placed. By the way, they can also be handed in at shopping centers or dropped into those machines that issue receipts. As for bulky waste — this is even more serious. Each house, according to the company with which the waste removal contract is concluded, has a specific schedule. Apartment owners and tenants must definitely familiarize themselves with this schedule, otherwise they will have to pay a fine. Personally I don't pay separately for waste disposal (it's included in my total rent), but in general this line usually costs around 10-20 euros per month. Despite all this, some locals are skeptical about what happens after all this sorted stuff is removed, but they still continue sorting it. The image is a game for children aged 5+ so that they learn proper sorting from such a young age. #Ordnung
