Comments by "Zeyev" (@Zeyev) on "I TRY WORKING as a RECYCLING TRUCK DRIVER" video.
Thanks for sharing what Burnaby is doing. Mountain View, California, has a similar set-up but we have a split recycle tote with one side for glass/plastics/cans and another side for paper. It makes it easier for the drivers because they don't have to get out of the truck. But it means more effort downstream when all of the various metals/glass types/plastics have to be separated. Like Burnaby residents we put our food waste in with our garden waste for composting. Our household waste is picked up every week whereas our recycling is taken every other week. We can take electronics and other materials to a facility we share with other cities. All that said, it looks like Burnaby is far ahead of us in many ways. PS My last time in Burnaby was participating in the 5K and the 10K at the stadium and the woods of Central Park during Gay Games III in 1990. Such a great experience! PPS When I carried mail for the US Post Office Department, we drove some trucks standing up It took a bit to get used to.
