* '''Segregated Collection''' - involves the collection of [[Food Waste]] in a separate smaller bin (often termed a caddy and around 24 liter capacity) and collected in a separate containment unit on a [[Refuse Collection Vehicle]] (often termed a pod) or as a separate container in the kerbside sort vehicle with the [[DMR]] collection system. The subsequent processing of the [[Food Waste]] is via [[Anaerobic Digestion]] or can be via [[In Vessel Composting]] if mixed with a suitable material to allow the process to work.  

* '''Single Stream Co-mingled (fully Co-mingled)''' - involves the collection of [[Food Waste]] and [[Green Waste]] in one receptacle (usually a 240 liter bin) and collected in a single compartment vehicle. The subsequent processing of the mixed material is in an [[In Vessel Composting]] system but it is also possible to process in [[Windrow Composting]] if the material can be guaranteed to be free of cooked and raw meat in order to comply with [[ABPR]]
