Let me join in the OP's rant. The thing that happens here a lot is you separate all the different kinds of waste stuff , store till there is enough to justify the trip to the dump, and your bins are full, then load up all the stuff and get to the dump to find that half of the containers are full to the brim. So there you are truck loaded with all the recyclable and nowhere to put them. So do I drive the 20 mins back home , unload then do it all over again at a later date. Or just throw it all into the already overloaded land fill.

The state and county both run adds encouraging folks to recycle to avoid unnecessary dumping and to get materials pack into the supply system. then they let this happen far too often.

Us old timers have to retrain ourselves to do all this separating only to find it was all for nothing. Gerrrr!

OK I'm done now, thanks.
