   In my city, we have 3 kinds of bins, all collected weekly:   
   - greenwaste: compostable plant material from gardening. No food waste   
     allowed so as not to get rats in the composting facility.   
     Also no bamboo or succulents (which is most of our garden plants);   
     those have to go in the trash bin   
   - commingled recyclables - Hard plastics, glass jars, cardboard, paper,   
     soup cans. But no pizza boxes or other things contaminated with food.   
   - trash: Everything else.
