I compost card but am finding these days more card has a plastic film
layer which doesn't compost. There also seems to be a lot of waxed card
which is somewhat waterproof and takes a long time to break down in a
compost heap.


Yes, annoying. Higgidy pies still have plastic windows that can be
pulled off and recycled with bread bags etc (where possible) leaving
the cardboard to be recycled as normal. They even have the instructions
on the box !.

All supermarket sandwich containers now seem to be made of cardboard
with a polythene film laminated all over it, like takeaway coffee
cups, so cannot be recycled in most places.
