I recycle when convenient. I have two cans the same company empties, one for trash one for recycling. I'll fill the recycling, and overflow goes in the trash.

My wife hates it, but the amount of plastic trash that factories produce just blows consumer household recycling out of the water. There are people whose jobs include fillling a whole dumpster each shift. No comparison. Im not bending over backward to be little Dutch boy with my finger in the dam while it's got a backhoe digging out the foundation.
