I was just reading we have this problem as well with some waste management companies... but we do process more internally. A lot does get wasted if the person doing the recycling doesn't follow their guidelines, which is very common and is one reason why China will reject... can mean that particular load is rejected. So do your reading and find out actually can be recycled... surprisingly, washed Starbucks cups etc, cannot be recycled. A lot of other things though can pass that you would not expect either... (like paper with minor food crumbs/oils, etc)

Yes that's got to change fast
there are now some new machines that can take that
that Cup and convert
the inner plastic into new products.

Only a few are in the UK.
So Far.
