I bet you could sort all the recyclable stuff from your rubbish in a

about ££££ tools.

I *could*. I wish to have the choice not to, but for it to be done by
the provider, not to be required to do so.

Well that's the price of living in a more civilised country, and one
where the democratically elected local/national government requires
you to play a part.

If you want to choose not to participate, why not exercise your right
to move to somewhere like Peru? There an army of homeless children
will scavenge from your rubbish at the dump, so nothing is required
for you to do.

cheers,
