Yeah same in my apartment. Bins are filled with incorrect items, and clearly dirty. I bring all my organized and clean recycling but know deep down its just going to a landfill or be burned.

On top of that, the bin categories are weird and it's really confusing. IE there is a bin that says "Bottles and Cans", and another that says "Paper and Cardboard". What about other plastics?

People will do whatever is easiest, even if they are decent people. We need better policies and systems to ~~force~~ incentivize people to follow the rules.
