How do they work?

The underground containers, as in the video, are enough to be pressed with the feet, to open the lid where the kings will then be thrown. All waste is deposited in the underground container, which is then emptied by cleaning workers.

New containers will also be placed in some areas of Tirana. Their feature is that they will be metal, to be more resistant than plastics and waste disposal will be differentiated. The latter will function as mailboxes, where waste to be dumped in the designated space and the lid will be hermetically sealed.
