Ok, thought about this question this a.m. as I was putting trash and recyclables out. Where I grew up, some people burned their trash, as some areas had no recycling and didnt care to pay for trash pickup. Now, I notice if I put any old metal, scrap etc out; its gone in less than 20 minutes. At work we have a plastics recycling bin/thing, and two dumpsters; one for trash, other for cardboard. The scrap we generate; we take to local and very large scrap place. The oil filters; OFR or oil filter recycling takes them. Just wondered what recycling and refuse collection is like where you folks are at. Thank you for the replies in advance also.
