Recycle right — the trick with the symbols

This map has two categories: "Container" (yellow/green street container, usually 24/7) and "Recycling Center" (fenced site with staff, limited hours but accepts everything). The material filter shows only locations accepting the chosen material — per OSM tags `recycling:glass=yes`, `recycling:batteries=yes`, etc. For centers it's worth calling ahead — some only accept residents of their municipality.

Tips for correct recycling

  • Sort glass by color — white, green, brown. Blue goes with green, red with brown.
  • Batteries NEVER go in regular waste — fire hazard in the truck. Any shop that sells batteries must also take them back.
  • Rinse plastic lightly — heavy soiling jams the sorting plant. Lids and labels can stay on.
