the national average is 44.1 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>It is being spurred on by research that has found the more bins you give people, the more they recycle.<\/p>\n<p>And that is the case in Caledonia Place where homeowners happily spend part of their day sorting their rubbish into an ever-increasing number of recycling containers.<\/p>\n<p>Because most of the houses are divided into flats, residents have discovered it&#8217;s best to have a fish supper on a Wednesday night so the smelly leftovers get picked up first thing the next morning.<\/p>\n<p>Others decide to recycle as they go along, making almost daily trips to recycling bins at the nearby Co-op store.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest fear is when someone walking past carelessly drops a drink can or crisp bag into the wrong container outside their homes.<\/p>\n<p>The binmen won&#8217;t take the container and the unlucky resident has to haul it back inside to store for a full week before trying again.<\/p>\n<p>This comes after Government plans that could have forced households to sort waste into up to seven separate bins and foot higher costs were delayed earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Confirmation of the massive overhaul &#8211; branded &#8216;madness&#8217; by critics &#8211; had been expected in April, but any announcement was delayed.<\/p>\n<p>Under the scheme, designed to make processes more consistent across England, rubbish would need to go into an array of different containers to stop cross-contamination before being taken to recycling centres.<\/p>\n<p>A 52-year-old creative director living in a basement garden flat said: &#8216;We all have to take responsibility &#8211; it&#8217;s our rubbish so we have to go along with these new measures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Recycling has changed over the years, we&#8217;ve gone from one container to five and now we can have more if we ask for them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We have stopped buying fruit and veg from supermarkets because it&#8217;s wrapped in plastic. Now we use a greengrocer who uses paper to wrap. I&#8217;m happy to make those changes.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/01\/15\/78468797-12813905-image-a-9_1701445447963.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Bristol City Council is leading the way in the UK by recycling 46 per cent of its household waste &#8211; the national average is 44.1 per cent<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/01\/15\/78468867-12813905-image-a-8_1701445439525.jpg\" height=\"388\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Homeowners happily spend part of their day sorting their rubbish into an ever-increasing number of recycling containers<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/01\/13\/78468825-12813905-image-a-5_1701437647375.jpg\" height=\"416\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Tax adviser Josh Greenhaf, 26, said: &#8216;I&#8217;m in agreement with what the council is doing &#8211; it&#8217;s simple enough to separate out your rubbish, we&#8217;ve all got used to it&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/01\/13\/78468799-12813905-image-a-3_1701437498386.jpg\" height=\"409\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Every Thursday morning the Bristol street is littered with hundreds of rubbish containers waiting for the binmen to arrive &#8211; and the number of containers could soon double<\/p>\n<p>Landlord Philip Baker, 66, said: &#8216;The more recycling schemes the better &#8211; we have to save the planet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I don&#8217;t think recycling goes far enough and shops should be doing a lot more to cut down on materials that aren&#8217;t bio-degradable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;ve noticed some supermarkets have gone back to selling eggs in plastic containers.
