In NYC, they hire people to do the sorting at the dump site. Or, at least that's what I've been lead to believe. It's unclear how or what to recycle (Living in Brooklyn for the last 13 years).
I've been in Vietnam for the last month, and the guys sort it on the back of the truck, at least in Ho Chi Minh City. Like they literally tear the bags open and sort all of it. Knowing what they pay developers here, I can't imagine what those guys are making.

In fact, a lot of building owners get a flyer they can post in a common area on the building that residents can see and read, although I'm not sure how owners get those flyers (probably by mail).
