Dumpster Cleaning Day

Believe it or not, the Swiss even keep their dumpsters clean.

To the right, you'll see a picture of the trash collector pressure spraying out one of the dumpsters. I don't pay close attention, but I think they do this about once a quarter.

One or two men will come out with their dump truck and spend about 45-60min hosing and scrubbing out the half a dozen or so dumpsters located around the cul-de-sac in front of our building.

All you have to do to appreciate the degree of order and cleanliness in Switzerland is to cross the border into Italy, France, or Germany. I love those countries, but nobody can match the Swiss in this regard.
