Cans have been in the yellow bag since the beginning of the year.
Many citizens have not yet internalized this, but they no longer find the corresponding containers at the recycling centers.
This leads to illegal deposits like the one here at the vocational school on Freisinger Straße in Erding.

In some districts, especially in the eastern district, it looks like a strike in southern Italy: mountains of garbage bags lie on the streets, some of them torn open, and waste is flying around.
This should be over now.
Erding - The Erding district currently has a big garbage problem - with yellow bags.
Since the beginning of the year, they have no longer been picked up every four weeks, but rather every two weeks.
But a legacy from the previous year is causing problems for the waste disposal company.
District Administrator Martin Bayerstorfer's patience is running out.
And Andreas Neumaier, head of waste management in the district administration, is announcing special tours starting tomorrow, Wednesday.
It was Stephan Treffler (ÖDP) who addressed the many negative headlines in the district council yesterday afternoon.
Bayerstorfer and Neumaier, who was hastily summoned to the meeting, explained once again that it was not the district that was responsible for the yellow bag, but rather the dual systems.
Nevertheless, we receive complaints every day.
The district administrator explained that the root of the evil lay in some places in the district, particularly in Wasen- and Grüntegernbach (town of Dorfen) as well as in some parts of the southeastern district as early as December.
“When it snowed so heavily, collection was suspended - and not rescheduled.
Then the operator changed from January onwards,” says Bayerstorfer.
Previously it was the company Umwelt Wurzer from Eitting, now Knettenbrech + Gurdulic from Kirchheim near Munich.
On the one hand, he is now overwhelmed by the amount of recyclables left lying around and also has too little local knowledge.
Bayerstorfer announced that they wouldn't be watching for much longer.
“We will make it clear to Knettenbrech that we will exclude him from future tenders if things do not improve quickly.” That would be a very sharp sword, because the Munich-based company has also taken over part of the residual and organic waste collection.
Neumaier reported problems with tour planning.
After five weeks it should finally settle in.
Knettenbrech wants to make up for the deficits this Wednesday.
Cans have also been going into the yellow bag since the beginning of the year.
The word has probably not gotten around to all citizens yet.
However, the containers at the recycling locations were removed.
Many are now placing the cans on other containers - an illegal dump.
