We've got two general waste and one paper/plastic recycle one.
Glass, (the most recyclable thing going!), has to go in the general waste in case someone cuts themselves at the recycling depot.
This was the reason I was given after an inspector called, (unannounced), to inspect my recycle bin one day after I had inadvertently put glass bottles in it. My bin was waiting for collection and he turns up and started emptying it on to the floor, bit by bit. He didn't see me in my shed so scared the sh1t out of him when I shouted and demanded to know what the hell he thought he was doing. After he'd explained, I told him I got the sticker and had heeded it, then asked him why it wasn't recycled and that was the answer I was given.
He then went to get in his little van and drive off, leaving my rubbish strewn all over the outer lawn. That ended up with another raised voice from me with threats of calling the police and reporting him for littering. Eventually started to pick it up so I went back to my shed and watched till he finished. Got in his van and roared off.
When my FIL was thinking about selling some of his land to a builder, we got to see the builders plans/spec. He had to provide enough bin space for two wheelie bins. How is someone going to cope with multiple bins if this is all the space they have? The idea is farcical and will not create any more employment, in fact it may reduce it because we would effectively be doing their job for them, instead of employing more at the recycling centres. I'm damn sure we won't get a reduction in our council tax either.
