I asked city govmt here why they don't make separation of recyclables from trash mandatory. It was explained to me that this would not work in a small community, though it works in larger cities. I think it would be a good idea, and people would not have to participate in curbside recycling. They could still take their recycling to the center on their own if they wish. The only requirement would be that they separate recyclables from trash in order to reduce what goes to a landfill.
