Live sorting know-how where people already shop
Deutschland trennt. is a nationwide action by the dual systems and their Mülltrennung wirkt initiative. Show trucks, the TRENN-BÄR mascot, quiz wheels, and giant XXL packaging installations bring hands-on sorting advice to market squares and retail car parks across Germany: not in a lecture hall, but where neighbours already meet.
What you can do
- Visit a roadshow stop near you when the tour runs (check the event map on the campaign page)
- Test your sorting knowledge at the quiz wheel and pick up practical tips for yellow-bin, paper, glass, and residual waste
- Share what you learn with housemates or your building's waste station
How to participate
- Find dates and locations on Deutschland trennt.
- The tour works with municipalities, waste companies, and 13 leading retail partners from grocery, DIY, drugstore, and organic sectors: events also appear at partner stores nationwide
Why it matters
Roughly 30% of what lands in yellow bins and sacks does not belong there: nappies, vacuum bags, and food scraps block recycling. Correct sorting at home keeps plastics, metals, and composites in the loop.
