* '''Single Stream Co-mingled (fully Co-mingled)''' - involves the collection of materials in one receptacle (usually a 240 litre bin) and collected in a single compartment vehicle with the subsequent sorting of these materials at a [[MRF]]
* '''Single Stream Co-mingled (fully Co-mingled)''' - involves the collection of materials in one receptacle (usually a 240 litre bin) and collected in a single compartment vehicle with the subsequent sorting of these materials at a [[MRF]]
* '''Two Stream Co-mingled (Twin Stream)''' - residents are provided with two recycling containers (boxes or bins and occasionally reusable bags) and are asked to place different materials in each container, typically paper/card (i.e. fibre based material) in one and plastics, glass, and cans in the other (i.e. container and '3 dimensional' items). These materials are kept separate either by the use of a vehicle with two separate compartments or in one vehicle which collects each material stream on alternate weekly arrangements. This material is then subsequently sorted at a simple or complex [[MRF]], according to circumstances.

The collection arrangements can therefore vary according to the type of broad approach, the containers used and the frequency of collection. They will also vary according to the way the service is linked to the collection of Food, Green and Residual waste streams - the combination of which is further set out in a separate page on [[Collection System Design]]
