House rules and useful information
Garbage / Recycling:
in Switzerland it is mandatory to carefully split your garbage into Paper / Plastic / Glass and to bring it to specific places. The one closest to our flat is next to the Route de Saanen, at the corner with the Hôtel les Bouquetins.
For the regular garbage you will have to use official bags that you can find in many different shops including the Coop. Cost is 10 CHF for a bag of 10.
In order to throw your regular garbage you will need to use the card that you will find on the chimney. Please make sure you leave it there before you leave otherwise I will have to charge you for it as the municipality only allows two cards per house.
Washing machine: Switzerland has a special rule for which washing machines are not allowed in each single flat. The building has a washing machine room as well as a clothes horse room available for you to use only on Tuesdays (this is our slot for the week) and Sunday (free day for everyone). You will need coins to get the machine to run.
Miscellaneous for the house:
If a bulb breaks you will find more in the cupboard in the entrance (second door giving the back to the entrance door)
