Do these B bottles just go in usual recycling? They look like deposit bottles but the machines don’t take them, no info on http://depozitapunkts.lv

These are either Lithuanian or Estonian bottles, won’t work here. Yes, we know, the system is stupid.
These go in regular recycling, not deposit. It’s a deposit marking from some other country, idk which one, but not Latvia.
Latvian ones are just the arrow hourglass bottle thing with or without AU written inside. AU is usually on glass bottles
The entire deposit system is retarded. Why couldn’t we make an united system that has the same symbols and machines. Nooo we must have our own and now I have to pay 10 cent extra for a bottle that has come from Lithuania or Estonia which can’t be fucking returned.
The entire system is a complete waste of money. We even have worse deposit systems than our neighbors, the machines they have automatically spin the bottle so you dont have to be searching for the barcode, meaning that you can throw the bottles in without wasting time and the machine just does its job.
Deposit symbols are more square
The way Lidl recycling works in Finland is weird too, they accept all other Finnish (Palpa) cans and bottles but Lidl-containers are only accepted by Lidl.
