I have had this house for 17 years using it part time and full time for the past 3 years. I have never had a bag "inspected" and the workers at the dump have been very helpful.

As to too much work to sort; a bin for cans a bin for plastic (sort the plastic types at the dump since they are side by side), a bin for glass (I put plastic and glass together and separate the two just before I go to the dump), and a pile for paper and cardboard. Sorry, it's really not that hard to do unless you just want to make an issue of it. They have samples of the plastic bottle types nailed up so sorting the plastic just isn't that tough either. When in doubt, ask. I had saved yogurt containers (type 5) for recycling and was told they are garbage. After a couple dump runs I got the hang of it. I went with a friend who was moving and cleaned out a lot of stuff. The guys came over to the truck, helped us to sort, and helped to unload.

And yes, I cheat occasionally too. When things are really messy they sometimes end up in the garbage rather than getting cleaned out.

I've had no problems and don't feel any intimidation.
