C-... If they had curbside pickup where I live I would definitely do more.

A. I recycle whatever can be put in the can. Unfortunately, our recyclers accept very little of what is able to be recycled.

"C" - We recycle everything but tin cans, milk jugs, and food waste. Yeah, no composting . . . YET. Everything else gets recycled or used as fuel for the fire place.

I stopped a long time ago. Just too much waste thrown out. Too much plastic is created to wrap food products, etc with. Needs to be stopped now. Find alternative ways .

Using a hydro flask or sports bottle over and over again is like wearing a mask, they're full of bacteria.

Why are you surprised? The City put together the least efficient system they could have with the highest cost imaginable. No surprise to a sane person, when the rest of State uses roll carts.
