I managed to get down to 10 bins last year, and hoping to do better this year. I have a compost heap, wormeries and go through the bin in the kitchen (no food waste so not smelly) to check for recyclables at the end of every day. South dublin co co now takes all clean plastic in their green bins so I dump all dirty plastic bags/ food containers in the washing up water when I'm finished washing up and leave them to soak for a while. Then I empty and drain them and pop them into recycle bin.
I've logged my progress with wormeries on:
