Exciting topic, right? This little series is about everyday things in Amsterdam. Thankfully, it is really easy to figure out, since the words for recycling items are almost the same as English. The only really weird thing is the lack of recycling aluminum or any type of metal; cans just go in the garbage bin. I think each neighborhood chooses their own style of receptacles and notice that most of these go into the ground so a truck with a crane has to come and lift it out of the ground.
