I put vegetable/fruit peelings in my refuse bin........OK, Ok. don't all jump on me at once and tell me that these could be used for compost........what good would compost be to me?
My backyard hasn't got one ounce of soil on it........now if some local keen gardener wanted to have my peelings and would be happy to collect them, that would be just dandy.
My bin gets the emptyings from the vacuum cleaner, the packaging that is non recyclable....and there is quite a bit of that, some polystyrene trays and plastic that wraps on some supermarket items aren't recyclable.......I do check to see if the packaging I am throwing out is recyclable.

Food waste of which there is very little(gizmo, is a greedy burger and will eat anything, including somethings he shouldn't eat - he recently fished some chicken bones out of my kitchen bin...luckily I caught him before he ate them).
This why I have free capacity in my bin.
