Sendlingen district politicians called for recycling islands where the waste comes from: in the supermarkets. But the city sees no chance for this.

Recycling islands are often overloaded with large amounts of waste. Aldi Süd and Edeka are examples on Implerstrasse. The interest of retailers and large supermarkets in setting up recycling islands on their premises is extremely low, says Kristina Frank, local authority representative for the state capital. The Aldi & Co.: Container initiative fails at supermarkets.
