Answer 1

I was in jail for a few months about 10 years ago. They put me on the work crew and about 12 of us would go to eco cycle and sort trash. Its all on a conveyer belt and you’re assigned specific trash. They have these MASSIVE bins that you toss the specific trash into. That’s the only sorting method that I knew of, free labor from the jail.
