Homes in Wales have the highest average number of bins in the UK , research shows.
Blaenau Gwent , Merthyr Tydfil and Neath Port Talbot among those with the most waste to sort.
Wales is currently second in the world for recycling household waste, only behind Germany .
But with that comes up to 10 bins per household, with some residents branding them 'ugly' and dangerous.
Wales Recycles said not separating waste meant councils were "less likely to be able to sell our recycling to businesses that need good quality materials to create new products" Dr Tommaso Regianni , a senior lecturer at Cardiff University’s business school, said while recycling “might seem free”, there were many associated costs.
These included physical costs, in finding the space for multiple bins, but also psychological costs such as time and the tension it could create within households.
