No, I am happy to hear that the volume going through the machines is increasing exponentially. It is a teething issue. I urge people to have patience.

It has been brought to my attention that people still need domestic recycling services for paper and other waste. A big volume of what went into the recycling bins was made up of plastic bottles. People will not now be filling their recycling bins as quickly as previously, and this could be seen as a positive. Can anything be done to reduce the cost of domestic recycling? Some people feel like they are paying on the double.
