In my local area, we have three bins. One for all recycling materials, one for non-recycling, and one for compost.

That's it. Not confusing at all. Our local authority deals with the sorting of all the recycling materials.

Yup, same system we have here. Obviously I have no idea what goes on behind the scenes, but it seems to work fine.

Well, seeing as we're in a Daily Mail thread, I'll posit the following: the recycling materials are all sorted by immigrants, the good stuff gets sent to Europe, whilst the bad stuff is delivered to Gordon Brown, and he personally sneaks it into children's school milk and baby-food.
