Strictly speaking we don't have tips here anymore, we have recycling centres. By far the most overflowing container is usually the 'non recyclables', but the guys who work there are great at helping people recycle what they can. It makes me mad every time I walk past a container and see something in there that could be used by someone else, if the person had bothered to give it to a charity shop instead.
Last time we went I was rather amused by the lectern that the workers had positioned in the middle of the containers, with the day's clipboard & papers on. That's recycling as it should be!
They even chained it to the lamp post to make sure people knew it wasn't available for taking! There is a large shed where they put the things that can be re-used by people so that you can go and see if there's anything you can use!
What's the oddest thing you've ever seen at the tip?
