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

In Germany, absolutely every house has different bins for different types of waste, and in apartments, accordingly, several bags for its collection. Germans take sorting quite seriously. For example, disposing of a paper bag with a cellophane insert, different materials separate from each other and end up in different containers. The same thing happens with 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: paper, food waste, plastic, and the rest. However glass should not go into the "rest"; it can be placed next to it in a bin. For example, in my house there is a cart (like in supermarkets) into which all jars and bottles should be placed. By the way, they can also be returned at shopping centers or dumped into those very machines that issue receipts. As for bulky waste — it's even more serious. Each house, in accordance with the company with which the waste removal contract is signed, has a specific schedule. Apartment owners and tenants must necessarily familiarize themselves with this schedule, otherwise they will have to pay a fine. Personally I do not pay separately for waste removal (it's all included in my total rent), but in general this item usually costs about 10-20 euros per month. Despite all this, some locals are skeptical about what happens after all this sorted stuff is removed, yet they still do not stop sorting it. The picture is a game for children aged 5 and up, so that they from such a young age learn proper sorting. #Ordnung
