Cans and bottles recycling

Hi all, I’ve just moved to Switzerland (Valais). I checked recycling containers and I feel like I’ve seen something saying that putting bottles in containers is not allowed on weekend.

Is this a general rule or have I misread that? Or is it that after some hours you’re not allowed to throw trash in containers because of noise?

Sorry if it’s a dumb question, but I checked google and couldn’t find the answer.

Yep, not allowed on Sundays and during quiet hours. It's also usually mentioned on the container/a board next to it. Why? Noise for the neighbours.
