It's funny I run condos and it's incredible how many people go to me "oh, blue is recycling? I didn't know" recycling has been blue for petty much all my life.
In North America, large dumpsters for apartments and companies have a colour that is just the company colour, such as Green for WM, GFL, Blue for Waste Connections, Republic, other companies can be Red, Brown, White, Cyan, Orange, Yellow or other colours.
The use is typically denoted by a sticker, sign or by spray painted letters.
For residential curbside bins, blue is typical, but some do it differently if it's separated further into glass, plastic containers and paper/cardboard products. The colours schemes between recyclables and organics is not consistent and varies from city to city.
At work we've got a 5 colour recycling system in the hallways:
Blue : plastic
Grey : paper / cardboard
Red : glass
Purple : metal
Yellow : metal and glass, but with consignment (cans bottles, etc)
I understand the consignment bit, but the other 4 colours of recycling is taken by the city. Which has single source recycling. Also the recycling in our cubicles is single source...
We also have a brown bins for organics, buckets for batteries, and boxes for electronics. Plus normal waste too.
