[QUOTE=gorillarick;2409666]Our trash pick-up (most of TV) recycles separating things recyclable and valuable$.
Yes they incinerate the combustible - generating electric power.

Am I understanding this correctly ? My village in Sumter Co. used to have residents separate and recycle some years ago now. THEN, we changed to this "new system" of putting anything and everything in one sack (any color and size as long as under 40#), so NOW people and machines have to separate all the egg shells, coffee grounds, orange peels, old batteries and unmentionable other types of waste to look for the "salvageable/useful items ?
Surely this is not the case ? What did I misread ?
