Ever notice there wasn't a water shortage until we started recycling?

Ours takes 1-7. They collect metal in the same bin. I assume separation is automated.
MBA Polymers grinds all the plastics together, and mechanically/electronically separates them after grinding. (If you are interested, Google them.) With this technology available since the late 1990's, I am surprised any municipality is not taking all plastic types.

I feel I should be following up with our town then-- and why they only take such minimal amounts of plastic.

Ours takes 1-7. All of our recycling is co-mingled, I'm curious how it gets separated.
