It's never occurred to me for it not to be ok. The bin's so deep I often break glass things putting them in. The 'waste disposal operatives?' don't handle the bin contents at all, it's emptied into the truck by machine, and I suspect it might be compacted in the truck like normal rubbish, which would break some things anyway. I'm going to carry on assuming it's not a problem unless someone tells me it is a problem anyway. I'm more concerned about their terrible guidance about what plastics they can and can't recycle - like they say bottles made out of just about any plastic are fine, but other objects made of the same plastic as bottles aren't - wtf!
