The problem is, whoever empties the trash bins would also have to empty the recyclables and set them out for the truck. Maybe there wouldn't be enough staff to do that; I don't know.

Question: we're new to TV (Feb of '12). We're in Sumter. Does the recycle truck not accept newspapers? If not, I've been messing up big time. But they have been taking our recycle bags and not rejecting anything.

The recycling truck takes newspapers. We tie up a bundle each week. Funny but a couple of times that I know of, the same truck took everything, all in the same hopper. I don't know the reason. Could have been a shortage of equipment or an error by the personnel but there it went, all together. Oh well, it usually works.
