All of that depends as the contracts change

For example, Sptbg county no longer recycles glass because they were going to have to pay the processor.
But we don’t have to sort cans and plastics because the processor can do that with a machine
Right now, plastics are getting buried with the rest of the trash because with cheap oil, there is no market for it. Apparently paper and metal still pays.

Maybe it is way past time we went back to glass bottles and to make it worth folks while to bring them back. 100% recyclable right there and far less plastic being used

no way I can put that little red plastic tub on the street piled up with empty beer cans. One of my neighbors will rat me out at church. In the trash they go.

interrupted but, they've stopped collecting fallen or cut limbs/trees because of corona! There is a lot piling up throughout the city. Goofy city officials trying to make another asinine political statement.
