Default Trash or Recycle?

Although I'm very careful to make sure all our recycle is just that, the recycle guy took 2 bags, but left one bag behind. My trash was on one side of the driveway and the recycle was on the other. When the trash guy came, he took both bags, although they were separated and the recycle was in a clear bag. I hear people say that they really don't recycle, that it all goes to the dump. Does anyone actually know - do they really recycle. I hope so, but if not, I won't waste my time separating it all. Whadayathink?

Now that is an interesting question. I would certainly hope they recycle if we are all jumping through the hoops (which I am glad to do) and not just going to the dump!

The garbage truck just took both our bags today too, but the recycle was in a clear bag with colored writing on it so it was probably our fault.

I think the recycles eventually go to a facility in Orlando to be separated.
