it really wouldn't make a huge difference for the amount of effort that would cause. People throw trash in all 3 bins, they get rainwater, etc etc. All recycling is contaminated to some degree.
In a perfect world it would happen. These companies arent going to spend millions buying trucks that will sit around waiting to be used. When trucks breakdown what ever is available at that moment is used. Same if you go help out another route,whoever's finishes goes to help .
@@GarbageGus If they have recycle bins at all. A lot of places that have garbage bins labeled for recycling inside the building don't even have a recycling dumpster outside the building.
@@GarbageGus I believe you dumped a load of recyclables into the garbage/landfill pit instead of the materials recovery facility in one of your videos.
Nice vid do they clean the trucks out from organics to garbage to recycle
They should have trucks specifically for recycling. Not collect trash, then food waste then recyclables. That's cross contamination.

@@GarbageGusthat’s the reason I won’t be a trash man the pay sucks job sucks and it’s all back an ball busting labor for sh:tty ass money
They have a degreasing step. You can recycle pizza boxes
We have separate trucks where I live. One for trash one for recycle and one for green waste.
25:13 was that at a laundromat
12:30 looks like every recycling dumpster in my area
Most commercial places just use recycle bins as trash overflow

Thanks for the video love it
What a contaminated mess. This is exactly why the US has such horrible recycling rates. At least half of that is not recyclable
Nice!
Garbage Gus be sure to try ROCK STAR PUNCHED FRUIT PUNCH ENERGY DRINKS.
Send some free cases so we can pass them out to everyone watching 😄
@GarbageGus ROCK STAR PUNCHED FRUIT PUNCH ENERGY DRINKS ARE AVAILABLE AT SUPER TARGET & WAL MART.
Shouldn't garbage be kept separate from recycle??
Yes, but if it’s below a 5% or so contamination threshold then it’s ok, alot of contamination is present in recycling dumpsters anyways
Not really we most trash company's don't do that anymore
👌
They all go to the same place
