No more Sperrmuell in Germany, except some very small cmmunuities
perhaps. Fridges and this stuff are in the meantime very sensitive stuff
and must be brought to special stations, mostly called
Recycling-Hof(court) or similar. There you can get all the stuff you need.
Fleamarket have become mostly professional organized and you will have to
ask local people for the real good ones. The big fleamarkets with a lot
of adds are mostly for tourists, lots of rubbish and crazy prizes.
I use to go go to fleamarkets with my youngest daughter for to sell the
accumulated surplus rubbish and had some bad experiences before I found
out again after a 10-years interval whats good or bad.
