IWV. It's a bitch- I agree. But sadly an inevitable consequence of our consumer and over-convenienced lifestyles. The best method of collection which I have written about several times on here, is if the collection team sort the recyclables into the different types at the road side as they collect. This would mean that householders would only need to separate into 1. Dry recyclable (paper, cardboard) 2. wet recyclables(tins, bottles, plastics) 3.compostables 4. Waste. The advantage in this type of collection is that contamination is avoided and the quality of the recycling is the best and therefore a good price guaranteed at the market place. The downside is that compared to other collection systems its expensive because you need 5 or 6 people on the team and also collecting might cause traffic congestion. Price wise tho', the cost is apparently clawed back by the fact that you get no rejections of the materials in the market place so in the long run, it actually works out as the cheapest method. (Sadly, Guernsey is not very good at looking long term so I doubt that they will do this. Also the mere suggestion that something might hold up the traffic.....well, can you imagine! ) Hope you appreciate my liberal use of paragraphs for the ease and pleasure of your reading experience!! ;-)
