In Chestermere rather than a bin for garbage, they require that garbage be thrown out in a clear garbage bag so they can see what's in it. If a place throws out stuff that should be either in compost or in recycle then they'll get a note for a reminder, and I think eventually a fine or they won't pick it up or something.
It took a bit of adjusting when they rolled out the blue and green bins for recycle and compost here, but I find it effective enough that I only have to put out a garbage bag once every other week.
