Round here we went down from several bins for recycling to one that takes
paper, card and plastics.

surely they take steel tines

They are by far the easiest item to recycle and to sort


The bin men occasionally look under the lid which they did for a neighbour
of mine and left her bin full when they found plastic sheets and followed up
by a letter from the council.

well that what happens when you don't follow the rules

I tip them every Xmas they dont bother looking in my bins.

I doubt they remember, personally

HTH
