The 6-litre container shown is far too small for bottles. I bought a 25-litre Albula recycling container for bottles. If you need to dispose of a large number of bottles, perhaps a 40-litre container would be appropriate. Another tip: the Rotho containers supplied by Galaxus are fitted with adhesives that can barely be removed, and if you do manage to remove them, there's still a residue of glue that can't be removed.
