It's funny, My towns been recycling for 20 years but suddenly we were mandated these giant recycle bins on wheels as a replacement to our small little baskets.
This coincided with, at the time a very large value for scrap plastic and paper.
Now this stuff is worthless and my town is collecting TONS of this stuff every week.
Boondoggle.

I bet they now toss the recyclables in the same pile as the trash.
What a joke.

About 5yrs back, our local trash hauler charged us for recycling using bins.
My neighbor was watching trash truck mix regular trash and recycling.
The following week he caught whole deal on film.
I live in condo community, association was refunded most of fee’s from recycling bins which also disappeared, now all trash goes in same container
