I'm not too sure which forum this should've gone in so if it's in the wrong place I hope the admin will move it.

I'm staying in a flat here in fuengirola and I'm trying to work out which bin the general rubbish goes - if it's not clean paper, glass or plastic I'm confused as the only other bin I can see is an organic one.  Which doesn't make sense.

if someone could post me a link to a dummies guide or explain it simply, I'd be grateful.

Thanks :)

Hi there,

Well if it's not glass, plastic or paper/card then it goes in Organica and you are right it doesn't seem to make sense (unless of course I've been doing it all wrong for the last 7 years!).

Thanks Kim,

As I was wandering around town I noticed an organic bin that had the normal fish and swirl (? not to sure what that is) and a teddy bear. Which did make me pause even more but I've been watching people dump bags in the organic bin and since I hear the clink of bottles sometimes I'm guessing the organic is the general bin.

I think the council is trying to trick us - either that or it was hopeful that everyone would recycle properly - which of course is never going to happen but I do give them an A for optimism ;)
