Day 26 / 365: Today organic and paper garbage is being collected
This is more a question to all you non-germans than a self-portrait. Still a contribution to the 365 and the Step into my world-pool.
We separate garbage here for recycling.
Today "Biomüll" (brown garbage can) and "Papier" (big green garbage can) is being collected. Also see the colors in the calendar. There is also "Gelber Sack" ( yellow sack ) in which we put things like plastic packages, polystyrene etc and "Restmüll" ( gray can / calendar rows ) in which we put... "the rest". Empty bottles and glass we have to take to a glass-container which is mostly positioned next to a mall / supermarket or so.
How is that where you live?
How often do they come get the garbage? Do you separate?

No yellow sacks, however: we bring our plastic to the “Wertstoffhof” where we dispose it in many different containers under supervision. The same with glas: separate holes for colorless, green (Jägermeister), and brown glass.
