  • Ah! Interesting. I always imagined everything, well, plastics and glass, metals, going in to a big steam cleaner before being sorted by some machinery and then by hand anyway. I have no issue with separating recyclable stuff from garbage, I do have issue with separating the types of recycling and then being forced to post each individual item through a tiny slot. Anyway.

    Manual sorting inhuman? Well...yeah, maybe, but... a job's a job.

  • Belfast city council has a 3 bin system and the recycling lorries have 5 bins. They use a non profit company to do the recycling runs where I am.

    So it does get hand sorted at the kerb. And I've had a stern note at some point for not doing it right... :)
