    I saw a bin collection this morning. The general waste went into the same truck as the recycle material. Am I missing something? Am I wasting my time separating and washing my recycle material?

    Some bin lorries have multiple compartments for different categories of waste.

    I used to work for Greenstar, just as an example with the same truck.

    Monday:Waste
    Tuesday:Compost
    Wednesday:Recycling

    All are emptied under the one roof in segregated areas for each.
