In Switzerland, you can recycle everything in general, but you don't get money

Nope, there are two standards
If it's neither one, it goes into the trash

No in Germany they don't take it at all

pay 10 extra cents for every bottle when buying, get it back when you recycle

25 in Germany i think

Right?

If you collect enough you can get some bucks for Dutch beer cans though

Yeah

25 on large, 15 on smaller bottles, 8 on glas bottles

Though they wanna raise the last one

and on the box you also get something, I remember that was a lot

the "Kasten" of beer

Yes

But I always forget about it

Should be like 1, something

There was a Christmas market in Freiburg that asked 5 Eur for a glass bottle of Rothaus and gave you a 2.50 Eur paper sheet with written Pfand on it

I bought one, copied the paper sheet, took all my glass bottles from home...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Having huge Pfand is kinda "usual" for such kind of markets, not sure why

it's like asking to be scammed

So you can't recycle bottles from outside at all?

In Berlin

no you can I think

you cant recycle bottles from outside germany

to be fair, we separate our trash into 4-5 different bins already by default (for general recycling)

what they are talking about is getting cashback for recycling

foreign bottles who are not part of the cashback system just go in the appropriate bin, i.e. plastic or glass

This is why homeless people will call you a son of a bitch when you give them foreign bottles

i dont know how I would react if a stranger hands me trash

Call him an Hurensohn obviously

I wanted to be nice

He was probably on some kind of drugs

Also, I gave him the bottle, he said thanks, I walked away and then he shouted "Du Hurensohn" and tried to throw it after me

"youre a son of a bitch"?

thats 4 sylalbles

over here we just say KANT

oy kant got a ciggie

nah its oi cunt spare a durrie

and true bogans can turn 'give us a' into one word
