Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM) in Nova Scotia, Canada, with a citizenry of about 375,000, has one of the a lot of circuitous kerbside accumulating programmes in Arctic America. Based on the blooming cart, it requires association to self-sort debris and abode altered types at the kerb on alternating weeks. As apparent in the photo at left, anniversary 1 would see the blooming barrow and alternative orange accoutrements acclimated for kitchen decay and added organics such as backyard waste. Anniversary 2 would admittance non-recoverable decay in debris accoutrements or cans. Dejected accoutrements are acclimated for paper, artificial and metal containers. Calm with acclimated grocery accoutrements absolute newspapers, they may be placed on the kerb either week. In summer, the blooming barrow is emptied account due to the prevalence of flies. HRM has accomplished a aberration amount of about 60 percent by this method.
Calgary, Alberta has adopted "Curbside" Recycling and uses dejected bins. The dejected barrow programme accepts all types of recycables, including plastics 1-7. It is best up account for the amount of $8.00 per month. This programme is mandatory.
Many Canadian municipalities use "green bins" for kerbside recycling. Others, such as Moncton, use wet/dry decay break and accretion programmes.4

Kerbside accumulating bins in Dunedin, New Zealand. The yellow-liddied wheelie bin is for non-glass recyclables, and the dejected bin is for glass. The two bins are calm on alternating weeks. Official board accoutrements are acclimated for accepted domiciliary waste, and are calm weekly.
In New Zealand, kerbside accumulating of accepted debris and recycling, and in some areas amoebic waste, is the albatross of the bounded city-limits or commune council, or clandestine contractors. Practices and accumulating methods alter broadly from board to board and aggregation to company. Some examples of accumulating are:
Auckland City-limits Council: Two 240-litre wheelie bins are supplied: a red-lidded bin for accepted refuse, calm weekly, and a blue-lidded bin for recyclables, calm fortnightly.
Christchurch City-limits Council: Three wheelie bins are supplied: a 140-litre red-lidded bin for accepted refuse, a 240-litre yellow-lidded bin for recyclables, and a 80-litre green-lidded bin for amoebic waste. The amoebic decay bins are calm weekly, while the recyclables and accepted debris bins are calm on alternating weeks.
Hamilton City-limits Board and Hutt City-limits Council: A 45-litre bin is aliment for recyclables, calm weekly. Accepted debris is calm account application user-pays official board bags.
Dunedin City-limits Council, Palmerston Arctic City-limits Board and Wellington City-limits Council: Two bins are supplied: a 45-litre or 70-litre bin for glass, and an 80-litre or 240-litre wheelie bin for non-glass recyclables. These two bins are calm on alternating weeks. Accepted debris is calm account application user-pays official board bags.
Rodney Commune Council: A 45-litre bin is aliment for recyclables, calm weekly. There is no board accumulating of accepted waste, and all accepted decay accumulating is agitated out by absolute companies.
Taupo Commune Council: A 45-litre bin is aliment for recyclables, calm weekly. Accepted debris is calm account application user-pays arrangement of orange tags - one orange tag is to be placed on a accepted debris bag up to 60 litres capacity, or bisected an orange sticker can be placed on two bazaar accoutrements angry together.56
Upper Hutt City-limits Council: Recycling is to be placed in artificial bags, with agenda and agenda calm in the aboriginal week, and plastic, metal and canteen in the added week. Accepted debris is calm account application user-pays official board bags.
Waitakere City-limits Council: A 140-litre wheelie bin is provided for recyclables, calm fortnightly. Accepted debris is calm account application user-pays official board bags.
By 1996 the New Zealand cities of Auckland, Waitakere, Arctic Shore and Lower Hutt had kerbside recycling bins available. In New Plymouth, Wanganui and Upper Hutt recyclable actual was calm if placed in acceptable bags.7 By 2007 73% of New Zealanders had admission to kerbside recycling.8
Kerbside accumulating of amoebic decay is agitated out by the Mackenzie Commune Council9 and the Timaru Commune Council. Christchurch City-limits Board is introducing the arrangement to their kerbside collection. Added councils are accustomed out trials.9

In the United Kingdom, the Domiciliary Decay Recycling Act (2003) requires bounded authorities to accommodate every domiciliary with a abstracted accumulating of at atomic two types of recyclable abstracts by 2010.10 There has been criticism in the aberration of schemes acclimated in the country such as the colour of bins, whether they are bins boxes or bags, and aswell the actuality that ataxia anchorage and how the added trucks and collections bare accept carbon dioxide emissions too. Some acquisition the colour differences confusing, and humans wish a civic scheme. A archetypal archetype is to analyze two neighbouring councils in greater Manchester, Bury board and Salford. Bury uses dejected for cans, artificial and glass, blooming for agenda and agenda and amber for garden waste. Salford uses dejected for agenda and card, amber for cans artificial and canteen and blush for garden waste. A lot of councils use blah or atramentous for accepted waste, with a few exceptions such as Liverpool, which uses amethyst for accepted waste, a colour acclimated by no added council
Another arguable affair in the uk is the abundance of the decay collections. To save money, abounding councils are acid the abundance of both accepted decay and recyclables collections. This has led to problems from beyond families, and has led to overflowing and fly tipping. For archetype previously, Bury Board calm accepted decay already a anniversary and recyclables fortnightly. This has now afflicted to fortnightly for accepted decay and account (every 4 weeks) accumulating of recyclables.
A few councils are application "forced" recycling, by replacing the large, 240l accepted decay bin with a abate 180l or 140l bin, and application the old 240l one for recyclables. This may be fabricated worse by fortnightly collections of the "small" bin, and austere rules such as "No added accoutrements will be taken" and "Bin lids accept to be absolutely closed". Stockport Board is a notable user of this scheme. Their recycling ante accept risen essentially as a result, but there are usually complaints from families. Trafford board aswell use a agnate scheme, but the baby blah bin is emptied every week. In addition, the two called councils, and more, aggregate aliment decay calm with garden waste, by sending out kitchen caddies and compostable liners. These anticipate aliment decay (including meat) from traveling to landfill, and to access the councils recycling rate. The aliment and garden decay is usually calm account or fortnightly, and is taken to an In Vessel composter or Anaerobic digester, area the decay is angry into clay improver for use on bounded farms.
In the arctic west, all the canteen calm is acclimated aural the uk, about bisected of the plastics and cans are acclimated in the uk; the blow is beatific added afield to Europe or China to be fabricated into new products, and agenda and paperboard calm is beatific to bounded agenda mills to be fabricated into newspapers, tissues, paperboard and appointment paper. Again some of the agenda will be beatific added afield.
Some councils alone accept 3 bins- general, amoebic and recyclables. This agency that plastics, cans and canteen go in the aforementioned alembic as agenda and cardboard. Although this is abundant easier for the residents, there is added allocation required, and the agenda superior is sometimes of a low brand due to aliment contagion or shards of canteen in the paper, and so this arrangement is criticized.
Also, a lot of councils crave association to abolish lids off bottles, and ablution them out to abstain smells. This is because the lids are fabricated from a altered blazon of artificial (PP) to the canteen (PET/HDPE). Labels are rarely appropriate to be removed, however. This aswell agency that alone artificial bottles are recycled. Councils are still aggravating to accomplish bright that artificial tubs, accoutrements and adhere blur cannot be recycled through the kerbside economically. If too abundant contagion is calm again this after-effects in the accomplished car amount traveling to landfill at a top cost. Contagion is usually a botheration if recyclables are calm in wheelie bins, as the artisan can alone attending at the top; there may be contagion 'hidden' at the bottom. Councils that use abounding accoutrements and boxes (Edinburgh) ache from beneath contagion but are complicated and the apart agenda and cardboard, and recycling accoutrements are destroyed around, and agenda can be wet.
