The only time we had to sort our recyclables is when I have to take it in directly after Hurricane Harvey hit and pickup stopped for like a month or two... that was a real pain, because a lot of what I get, I recycle... but I do question how much actually gets through the process... still better than sending it all to the landfill though.

We have separate food waste, cardboard, paper, cans and all plastic but no black, and it all has to be separate, cardboard has to be tied together not with any paper , and try getting a new box from council when some gits nicked yours.
