You’d be surprised. In the last city I lived in in Orange County, the waste system was deliberately designed to have a single residential container and full sorting done at the waste facility by a combination of people and machines. The claim was that it was actually more effective than curbside sorting because the professionals and automation knew how to process recyclables better than the average resident. I don’t know if that is what Recology does in single-truck locations, but it seems likely.
