Here's a simple plan: Allow businesses with less than 50 employees to put their recyclables out for the town to pick up (of course, you'll have to make adjustments to the routes the trucks travel). Businesses with over 50 employees must have a recycling dumpster; and if they don't get one, they should be fined. It's my understanding that if a town sends more recyclables back to the RIRRC, they get money back. As far as your regular citizens are concerned, you should require them to put out a recycling bin with recyclables in it in order for their trash to be picked up.
