I do not know the answer to the question you pose PP, but might it be that these very kitchen slops are the easiest to recycle? An instant plus to aid the take-up of the whole recycling scheme.
Or...
Does the weekly collection of the smelly (vermin attracting, disease engendering) refuse help with the idea of the fortnightly collection of the non-recyclable stuff?
I am sure Ian that if you were to report the fact that you have not been visited as advertised somebody will ensure that the truck will pop round you way soon.
Why make this recycling issue into just another bone of contention? Lets work together, lets be nice and helpful, lets be good neighbours...we'll all be in the kitchen-slop bracket sooner or later.
One, two, three...Ahhhhh
