It's the non recyclable recyclables that need to be recycled.

so WTF II got another letter with a so NO I had not put the full bags in any longer but had put a plastic tray from the garden center and some emptied CARD FREAKIN BOARD boxes that frozen type food had been in within a plastic bag & no I did not put the bag in.

apparently cardboard packaging on things is a NO

think I'm gonna give up butt then I'll feel guilty so may just put ONLY bottles, cans & cardboard from like a delivery box shipped.

Sorry for the RANT but it just seems odd that cardboard and or even plastic that I KNOW is recyclable isn't recyclable
Just put everything in black garbage bags and don’t worry about it.
It’s their focking job to separate it - or just send them a bill or deduct your time/effort from your monthly utility bill.

Honestly recycling is overrated. Every municipality has wildly different rules and lots don’t make sense. And I don’t know about other places, but up until a few years ago, our local recycling was sent to Asia WHERE IT WAS BURNED. We really need to consume less instead (not really conducive to capitalism).

okay I’m done now.

You might end up getting double your garbage back in return. That's how the Zanone Bros' do it. Then they charge you twice because they had to make two trips to your house.
