Recycling and waste disposal
Garbage Disposal
In Argau it is required to purchase official bin bags to dispose of your household trash. They can be purchased in all supermarkets (they are usually not out on the shelves so make sure to ask at the cashier's desk for it).
These bags are NOT for recyclables. Compost, PET bottles, glass, carton, paper, aluminium cans, batteries and other toxic waste are disposed of separately to household garbage.
Full bin bags are not picked up from the street. They must be placed in designated neighbourhood containers.
The container is the grey one, just in fron of the house.
Recycling
Glass and aluminium need to be separated and then deposited at local recycling points.
The closest recycling point to the flat is at: Züricherstrasse 89, 5432 Neuenhof (3 minutes walking fromt he flat).
Plastic PET bottles can be dropped off at the large containers in front or inside of supermarkets.
Cardboard and paper are picked up for free in front of your house every other week.

Compost can be put in the green container in front of the door. Please make sure not to put any non-compostable material in there.
