Terry. The problem with this type of collection (all recyclates together in one bag) is that they have to be sorted mechanically and there is always a lot of contamination. It only takes one clown to put in a tin still half filled with baked beans and everything gets covered. Also the machines themselves aren't fool proof- they frequently let the wrong things through and then the whole container risks being rejected from the market and you don't get paid for it. There has to be some separation at the doorstep to maintain the quality of materials.
