That's the guy on your street who puts the correct bin out early each week, thus signalling to everyone else which one they need to take out.
Tonya Marie 🏳️⚧️@Anomnomnomaly Where is that a thing? Where I am, all bins go out on the same day, and trucks for each come by at different times.
In the UK, in some towns/cities you have multiple types of bins and collections.
For us, we have recycling bins and food waste that go out every week and a black household waste bin that goes out every three weeks.
At my old place, it was household one week, recycling the next.
In my old city that I moved from a few years ago... I heard they'd changed to about 3 or 4 different wheelie bins... and it's a disaster because so much of the original towns are victorian terraces with limited access for people to store bins, let alone put them out as they clog the pavements.
@Anomnomnomaly Yeah, we have a blue bin for mixed recycling (certain hard plastics, metal, glass, paper) and a green bin for "send to landfill" and a grey bin for yard/compost. All go out on the same day and are serviced by different trucks throughout the day.

Not the other way around with the color coding? Terrible!
