If it's single-sort, why are there still bins that say "cardboard only" or "cans only"?
This is because a hauler, business, or even city hall can get a better price at another company (such as Pioneer Papers or RockTenn) if they pre-sort a certain material. The best way to be informed is to directly contact your hauler.
