I have always been suspect about whether the garbage collectors on our street actually recycle, since only one truck comes down the street, and they are in and out quickly. This morning we scoped it out, since they came later than usual, and sure enough they were throwing the recyclables and garbage all in the same bin, while the truck was equipped with the bins on the side to take recyclables. The truck was from this company: http://www.jennkans.com

Having lived in an area that really did recycle I remember it being a fairly labor intensive process. Separate trucks were used, the workers were sure to throw the recyclables into the correct bins, and the sound of smashing glass was clear as certain bins contained only glass. I have never noticed that kind of effort going into the garbage collection on my street.
