Recycling Myth #5.

❌ Myth: Recyclables must be completely spotless.
✅ Reality: They don’t need to be perfect -- a quick rinse is enough in most cases.

What matters:
• Containers should be empty
• Remove heavy food residues
• Sort correctly

No need to waste water trying to make packaging look brand new. Save water instead!

Recycling myths, continued.

❌ Myth #2: Drinking glasses belong in the glass bins
✅ Reality: Different melting point → ⚫ Restmüll or Mistplatz

❌ Myth #3: All plastics are recyclable
✅ Reality: Usually only food & product packaging - not household plastics.

❌ Myth #4: Garden waste goes in Restmüll
✅ Reality: Small garden waste → 🌱 Bio-Tonne, larger amounts → Mistplatz

We’ll be back with more myths -- and more corrections! ♻️

Let’s make Vienna cleaner — one smart bin choice at a time.

🤧 THE TISSUE TRAP — Are you falling for it?

We get it — it’s paper, so you toss it in the paper bin, right?
❌ Nope.

Used tissues (yes, even the ones from your sniffly winter days or allergy season) are contaminated and don’t belong in the paper or organic bin.

🗑️ In Vienna, they go straight to the residual waste bin (Restmüll) — just like greasy napkins, makeup wipes, and paper towels.

💡 Don’t let a tiny tissue cause a big contamination problem.

👉 Swipe through the quiz to test your bin skills and learn the truth!
Let’s recycle smarter, not harder 💪♻️
