Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

Don't know if they still have this scheme but a few years ago over in Vale Royal you used to get a Green bin for your unrecyclable landfill rubbish and a Brown bin for garden waste etc.
Now the good bit of the scheme.
Collection weeks were alternated as Green weeks and Black weeks. On a Black week you put out your Green bin. On a Green week you put out your Brown bin (and bottles/cans etc).

Our council seems to be living in the dark ages.
No wheelie bins supplied. Had to buy our own black bins for general rubbish
2 black boxes for cans, plastic and paper+cardboard
1 green bag for garden waste
No glass collection, so I go off to the bottle bank every bloomin fortnight
No fruit juice carton recycling, again off to local recycling centre
The garden waste bags and black boxes are rotated each week, even during the winter when nobody is doing any gardening.
Only good bit is that there isn't a limit on how much you can throw out. Just buy more bins, or more plastic boxesComment
