United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

One lorry, different colour bins. Suggests they get the locals to separate the rubbish just so they can put it all back together in the same lorry. Unless there's some clever switching going on in the lorry, that just adds fuel to those who think recycling is pointless.

Around here we have different lorries for different bins. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

We have 2 bins and a blue box.
Black bin for household rubbish
green bin for garden rubbish
blue box for tins/bottles

But like you said, in this example it appears as though all bins are emptied by one truck Rolling with laughter . not sure where this was filmed

United Kingdom 

now I hope your all going to follow this cos our council did not when we tried to explain it Laughing

we have a blue bin for recycle stuff and a green for everthing else, each collected once a fortnight... that's the easy bit.

They started off by just coming down once a fortnight and emptied both bins together, so that could be our council lorry Censored

lorry now comes down for those that want to recycle on week 1 and empties your blue bin.

lorry comes down on week 2 and empties all the green bins AND the blue bins of those that don't recycle Shocked
whats the point of doing the recycling and how do they know who is and who is not Shocked Rolling Eyes Porsche Cayenne 2022
