Same system here, Kym. But we are lucky to be able to have a compost heap, which means all we have in the rubbish is selophane from around plastic fruit trays or whatever, and waxed cartons from smoothies (Mmmmm!) and fruit juices. The rest is recycleable, although some we have to take to the tip ourselves. I wish they would just put recycling bins around in more places, and for everything recycleable.
And we only have one small box for a fortnight's papers, tins and bottles, and a plastic bag for garden stuff.
Once we've found a way of preventing the foxes and
Badgers from hurling the compost heap jubilantly round the garden, we've cracked it!
