No we recycled them and recycle rates were really high. They just went in the green wheelie bin and were picked up every week or two.
I would be fine with the deposit scheme but the plastic bottles and aluminium cans all need to be in perfect condition / no squashing them down so they quickly start taking up a lot of space in our (busy) house then need a trip to the store followed by putting them in a scanning machine one by one where before we could just squish them and pop them in the green bin.
I’m not doing any more recycling but now I have a lot more effort unfortunately.
Also no glass in the scheme.
I’m honestly not a fan as someone who was recycling everything already.
Ah, well at least there’s now an incentive for someone to pick up any cans and plastic bottles left lying around outside. Some people in my town eke out a living off other people’s carelessness.

Honestly, it’s just made me buy less pointless soda and fuzzy water, just because it’s a pain to deal with.
Good outcome I think

As long as they’re not squashed!
