Have you tried putting the recycling out in one of the city-issued  
yellow cans or bins?  I know that theoretically they're supposed to  
take it whether it's in a yellow container or not, but so many people  
use the containers now that the recycling may no longer be obvious if  
it isn't in one.  You can get one of the big cans from the Ace  
Hardware store behind the Giant for less than $25.
