In my area the food waste and yard waste are turned into compost which 
is available to residents for free. They do a good job at removing the 
non-compostable stuff that gets dumped into the yard waste bins.

In fact, today is the first day of the seven month window that it is 
open:

There are no garbage police, yet, but it does benefit residents to sort 
their trash into the gray, blue, and green bins because garbage rate 
increases are tied to the amount of waste that ends up in the landfill, 
versus waste that is turned into compost, or waste that is, 
theoretically, recycled (I say "theoretically" because most of the 
recycled material is usually no longer recycled (other than aluminum cans)).
