Hello Everyone,

Does anyone have any spare stickers for rubbish bags that they don't need? I seem to have lost my stickers.

Assuming you're in Basel-Land (if in Basel-Stadt, you need to buy "Bebbi-Sagge"), I guess you realise that those stickers actually cost money, right? Effectively you're asking people to hand you some cash.

You can buy "abfall vignetten" at most supermarkets and petrol stations in Basel-Land.

In Baselland, and I wasn't aware the stickers are sold separately, hence why I thought people might have some spares. Thank you for the helpful guidance, but the likening to asking for free money is dramatic and unnecessary.

You're most welcome.

If I may provide some further assistance, some pharmacies also sell the vignettes (you hand them cash, they hand you the vignettes). Be careful to get the correct vignettes, as they are issued not by the canton (Basel-Land) but by each community. For example, the pharmacy in Allschwil Paradies (in the Allschwil community area) sells vignettes not only for Allschwil, but also for neighbouring Binningen.

I guess you are aware that you are free to buy any brand of rubbish bag, but the capacity of the bag must match the vignette -- usually 35 litres. If you want to use 17.5 L bags, you just use half a vignette (at least, that's the case in Binningen).

The stickers are sold in sheets, not individually, just to be clear. We get ours from the post-office.

Fixed that for you
