In Germany, the city weighs your garbage and charges you $4 per kilogram (!) As a result, people recycle and compost almost *everything*. You need a permit to throw out furniture (once per year, max).

I am specialist of German News. Brother has started v.good topic. People pay monthly euro 70 or more for the garbage
and footpath cleaning. They have gray container for normal garbage, blue for paper, yellow for plastick, brown for
compot. Please watch this plastic recycling and they burn this plastick for cement factory, no other material.

Grundstzliches zum Abfallvolumen

Die Abfallsatzung verpflichtet uns, Ihnen ein Mindestbehltervolumen fr die Graue Tonne zur Verfgung zu stellen.

Sie geht von einem Regelmastab von 30 Liter pro Person und Woche aus. Reduziert werden kann dieser Mastab auf 20 Liter pro Person und Woche, wenn Sie die von uns angebotenen Verwertungsmglichkeiten, wie z. B. Depotcontainer fr Glas, Papier und Alttextilien, die Recyclinghfe, den Sperrmllservice, den Hckseldienst, die Schadstoffsammlung, die Weihnachtsbaumsammlung und die kombinierte Wertstofftonne/Gelber Sack) nutzen.

Um die Bemhungen Dortmunder BrgerInnen bei der Abfallvermeidung noch weiter honorieren zu knnen, wurde ein 15-Liter-Mastab beim Restmllvolumen mit einem vierwchigen Leerungsrhythmus in die derzeitig gltige Abfallsatzung aufgenommen. Unverzichtbar fr die Anwendung der 15-Liter-Regelung ist aber, dass neben der Inanspruchnahme der vorgenannten Verwertungsmglichkeiten auch keine Organik-Abflle mehr in die Restmlltonne gelangen drfen. Darum ist die Eigenkompostierung oder die Verwendung der Biotonne eine der Voraussetzungen fr den vierwchigen Leerungsrhythmus.

Wenn Sie diese Voraussetzung erfllen und Ihren jetzigen Liter-Mastab auf den 15-Liter-Mastab pro Person und Woche reduzieren mchten, dann knnen Sie dies ber einen speziellen Formantrag bei uns beantragen. Klicken Sie hierzu den Button an und wir senden Ihnen den 15-Liter-Antrag zu.

In USA there is a weekly pick up of the Garbage and you pay for that service on monthly basis.
This is what they recycle
Recyclinghome.gif


All these items are recycled, Newspaper, Magazines, Plastic Bottles, Glass Bottles, Paper Boxes and Card Board Boxes.
You can not throw these items in the garbage, they do have inspectors and you garbage can be inspected, if any of the recyclable items are found in the garbage you are issued a ticket.
I wish we can establish some kind of garbage disposal policies in our country.
