Add separate recycling chutes and it may look very different.

You don't need separate chutes for e.g. PET and metals; they're easily sorted afterwards.

If beer residue doesn't make paper non-recyclable, you can chuck paper and cardboard into the same chute too, and now you have one chute for the major recyclables and one for trash that gets burned.
