What happens if a householder does not follow recycling rules?

If a householder does not follow recycling rules, leaving a polite note explaining the situation serves several important purposes. Firstly, it emphasizes education and awareness regarding proper recycling practices. This approach fosters a collaborative community spirit, encouraging individuals to understand the importance of adhering to recycling guidelines rather than immediately resorting to penalties.

By providing this information in a gentle manner, the note can help correct the behavior without escalating the situation or creating animosity. It allows the householder an opportunity to adjust their recycling habits and become more knowledgeable about what can and cannot be recycled, thereby promoting better compliance in the future.

In contrast, immediate fines or reporting to local authorities can lead to resentment and does not necessarily encourage positive change in behavior. Leaving a note is a constructive way to address the issue while keeping the lines of communication open between sanitation workers and residents.
