There are no glass containers in the community of Neubiberg.
After complaints about littering and noise at the recycling islands, the association abolished the containers.
Some citizens are annoyed about this.
Unterbiberg
- For Oskar Wunder from Hallstattfeld 11, the "green thumbprint" is too weak with a view to his own Unterbiberg living environment.
“There are no glass containers anywhere in Unterbiberg.
Thus, the incorrect filling of the residual waste bins is preprogrammed, ”writes the angry citizen to the editorial staff of the Münchner Merkur.
Complaints about litter and noise
"That's right, and in a certain way I can understand the gentleman in his annoyance," explains Neubiberg's mayor Thomas Pardeller (CSU) when asked.
But years ago they had already deliberately taken a different path.
"Continuous complaints about litter also in the area, about noise and disposal even outside of the drop-in times" named managing director Georg Wagner from the Zweckverband München-Südost as the main reasons.
Once a week to the recycling vehicle
Eight municipalities are grouped together in the Zweckverband. Neubiberg is one of a total of six municipalities that have converted the system. Only Ottobrunn and Sauerlach go a different way, handle the waste disposal completely independently. The recycling mobile of the Zweckverband am Maibaumplatz is well received and offers a good opportunity to hand in the glass once a week on Mondays ", Pardeller refers to the existing procedure in Neubiberg." Citizens can also get their bottles at eight bulky waste appointments per year dispose of them and also drive to the recycling centers, ”adds Wagner. In the case of residential complexes with at least ten parties, the association would also set up its own waste glass containers. "From our experience that is enough - especially since most bottles are covered by the deposit system anyway".If you insist on containers, you can only do this relatively close to home in Ottobrunn or even further away in Sauerlach. He would only find recycling islands in the special purpose association area there.
Tendering every three years
In view of the comparatively long distances and journeys by car, this would not be a real green thumbprint.
Such bottle tourism has not yet been identified with the Zweckverband.
“Our offer is sufficient”, summarizes Wagner.
Waste disposal is put out to tender every three years.
If the Zweckverband were no longer awarded a contract, a lot would change again anyway. ”For Oskar Wunder, a network of municipal recycling that is not always easy to see through.
“Well then, not”, is his dissatisfied conclusion.
In any case, he is not convinced of the current system.
