We have a green bin for recycleables, a purple for general waste, and a narrower green one for glass bottles [this one sees the most action].

It's like an outsourced service [Greenstar] we are contracted with though because it's cheaper and better for the environment than the city council's service.

The thing is, for our glass/bottles one (blue I think - used to be the card/paper bin) it depends if the bin men are on their period or not. Honestly. I have my bedroom window open and can hear them "No, not taking this, it has a juice bottle/carrier bag" yet other weeks it's no questions asked. The lot gets lobbed in the truck. There could be a head in there and they'd still lob it in
