I throw away most plastic. Easy to rinse out, larger plastic containers that are recyclable I will recycle.

Metal is important to recycle. I'm indifferent about cardboard, but since I get so much of it I need to use the larger recycle bin for that instead of throw it away. I recycle glass mainly to keep shards out of the landfill, and the fact that it never breaks down into something useful like methane.
