San Francisco lets its lazy residents throw all recyclables into a
single bin; they sort it later.

how it works.
What you have is sort of like a conveyor belt except, for reasons not

the lighter paper crawling upward and eventually off the top of the
screen, while the heavier cans and bottles and whatnot slide downward
onto another conveyor belt.
