I have one of these right in front of my door across the street. BTW I live in Groningen city. And yes, there are different containers for different things, like glass, we have two; one for white bottles, and one for collored bottles, we even have one for textiles/clothes and shoes.
With those underground containers is only a risk with kids. They love to play hide and seek. So it happened a few times they were hiding in there managed to close it but then you will fall into the container. Because of that city's thought of the idea to keep the underground containers closed and that you can only open it with personal garbage pass. But they added a fee for that. So every time you use the pass 0,50 cents was charged. Because of that people did not use this container anymore and put the garbage next to this container. For that reason they opened this container again. But in my eyes best is to close it without charging anything if someone uses this pass. That did not happen yet
Development of these kind of things are given to university's. A lot of times they ask students to develop a solution for a problem. The student learn something and the local gournment does not have to spent much money on it.
Aqui também, na Italia, moro em Firenze, há recipientes subterrâneos na área central e, superficial (caixas) nos subúrbios, são separados para: vidro (verde), plásticos (embalagem azul) papel (amarelo) orgânico (marrom) etc.
The video has been around for a while, many cities have implemented these containers. Depending on where you live, we have to separate glass, paper, packaging like plastic and cans, and other waste. In busy areas like supermarkets, there are multiple underground bins for each type. In more residential areas, there are only bins for plastic and other waste. You have less glass and paper waste anyway, so it is easy enough to carry it to the supermarket and drop it off a few times a month. Here in Utrecht, all regular waste bins have been replaced by these underground containers, except for some areas in the city center. Alongside the main canal in the city, trash is collected by a boat. We still also have the littering problem: people are just too lazy to walk 2 meters to the next waste bin, some will just throw it on the street. It is annoying, and it happens in all major cities. All over town, not just in parts of the city (rich or poor, densely or sparsely populated).
The Netherlands has solved this problem, and many European country's has following this idea. We paid a lot of taxes, but we can see that the government makes our lives much easier.
These underground containers are great but sadly a few times a year you hear about a baby or litters of puppies and kittens being dumped in them. Luckily a lot of the time people hear them and they are rescued.
It,s not all great In my city you have to use a special card to open the underground container and every swipe of the card cost €3,50 So you stil end up saving the garbage at home until you have a full load.
Well, I only know this in our city in germany, we also have these underground rubbish bins in the city centre, but we don't have such a concept that we throw our household waste into underground rubbish bins., but I don't know how often they do it. They either come once a week or every fortnight. I've changed it to every fortnight to save money, because it's now very expensive, even for a 60-litre bin. Yellow and paper are included free of charge, 120 litres each. Our municipal waste disposal company has both the normal waste disposal lorries, where two men stand at the back and operate the compactor. They mostly operate in the city centre where there are lots of flats, as there are usually large communal bins there. They also drive round businesses. (We also have such large bins at our work), which we also drive every fortnight on different days to a point where the refuse collectors drive to and load the refuse. As well as the one-armed bandits. That's what we call the waste disposal vehicles that are only operated by the driver. The driver drives to the side of the road to the nearest bin (which is carefully placed there by the resident, straight), extends the arm with a joystick and unloads the bin from the side into his bin lorry. As I used to work for an external waste disposal company myself, I am also familiar with the rural approach. At least as far as yellow bags are concerned. Incidentally, yellow bags are for plastic and film. So all plastic packaging and aluminium cans can be thrown away in the yellow bag or bin. 3:00 Well, with us rats can also get it out, but cats do that too. At least wild cats do when they smell something edible.
Sem vidro, não vai para a mesma lixeira. Existem recipientes separados para vidro colorido, vidro vazio, papel, plástico/caixas de bebidas/metais, roupas, etc. etc. Também na maioria dos lugares, os recipientes de lixo geral só podem ser abertos com autorização da empresa de coleta de lixo. (Eles cobram pela quantidade/peso que você joga. Isso é registrado no passe de abertura do contêiner.)
I live in Nieuwegein and part of Nieuwegein they have collections day but part mostly by apartment complexes we have underground trashcans. We need a pas to use it it from October 7 cause it was full most of times, yes we collect glass in same kind underground cans. We have also underground trashcans for green fruit and biological stuff. And for paper aswell 😊 people who have collection days has around 3 containers outside, green blue and grey. That's annoying also for them
Looks like a cool concept, in Germany they have the normal garbage cans, For larger shared apartments, we have big cans for which you need a key. So no animals can get in. Such underground garbage cans are only found in the city centers. I think I've seen something like that in Austria before too.
@@DJone4one In meiner Stadt habe ich noch nicht darauf geachtet. Habe nachgeguckt, wir haben genau die selben Tonnen seit fast 15 Jahren in Hamburg. Aber auch in einigen anderen Städten gibt's die.
This system isn't perfect, and it's because of the behavior of people. People are too lazy to walk to the next container if the nearby container is full. And so they place their trash bin next to the container, which attract animals like seagulls and rats. The containers are meant to dispose of your garbage bags, but people often place big items next to the container, like sofas or refrigerators. Just because they don't want to put any effort in bringing those items to the recycling alley. So it's the behavior of people that causes most of the inconvenience when garbage is placed next to the container.

Watch your vids every now and then, you deserve more viewers, subscribes and likes ! Keep it up !
It's not just in Amsterdam, practically the whole country has this.
No, only larger cities and apartments complexes, small villages / roads still have the regular containers.
Yes, clear, green and brown glass bottles have to be separated.
Plastic, paper, metal, electrical appliances has to be separated too.
I love your video's. Makes me appreciate the things we are so used to.
Yeah we are smart we dutch, there are containers for everything, garbache , white glass, brown glass, paper, cloth and go on and on and on.

Most big and larger cities in the Netherlands have this system 😊

They have another advantage. Only one person needed to collect garbage
there are different containers for glas-paper and plastic

These are normal in many places in Europe, not just the NL
Good to know, never seen them outside the Netherlands!

Great video. But 98% is now with system like this
0% of the USA
