Thanks for looking into this a few months ago. Since the recycle bins have been taken away from public areas, I wanted someone in local news to look into it. I don’t want to pay for curbside recycling that is not recycled!

I tell my wife all the time. It matters what u throw in the recycle bin but she loves to argue

@LaydeeLia 3 месяца назад

Bcuz it's LESS work to argue, than it is to have to think about what needs to go where + having to do the actual work of removing labels from cans, rinsing jars, etc. When it becomes easier to do that and harder to argue, she will recycle 😉🙂

Being recycled and being processed are two different things. Most of those plastic bales will end up somewhere in Southeast Asia, and there is a slim chance any of it will actually be recycled.

One of my pet peeves: Seeing “trash” in a recycling bin.

Same with composting.. whats so funny about it. The customer has to pay someone to take it away anyhow..

@villageidiot9867 2 месяца назад

We have a separate can for throwing recyclable plastic at our work stations at work. I've never seen anyone put that anywhere but the garbage bin. I still use it as it was intended, most others just use it as a second garbage can. I figure eventually I'll give up also.

Amazing that they can absorb the cost of 30% loss, in addition to the cost of dumping the trash.

The only hard part about recycling is the idiots who are putting random stuff in their recycling bin..

@patrickrichmond9896 3 месяца назад

This does go to show that we all need to pay attention to what we put in our recycle bin. There were so many residents where I live that chose to ignore the rule and everyone got punished for it because of someone's stupidity. I know I am a mean guy by blocking people for jokes, but this is not funny at all.

I heard AirTags are not recyclable 🙄

@user-mr3rz4ul7d 2 месяца назад

Who cares where it goes and who makes a profit off of it. You put it in the bin for the city to pick up. If your offended then maybe you should recycle your glass and plastics yourself. Then you can make the profit. Geez.....🤦

Just pay your fees and stop asking questions.

This guy is smart and I second his notion, most definitely. Kevin's are insanely accurate and know their shit. Every. Time.
