Sondermüll (hazardous waste)Why
- Many cleaning products contain chemicals that do not belong in the Restmüll (black bin) or Gelbe Tonne (yellow bin).
- They must not enter the sewage system as they can pollute water bodies.
- Therefore, they belong in your local authority’s hazardous waste collection.
The acceptance of cleaning products may vary depending on your local authority, so check with your local waste disposal authority.
