Be aware that the rubbish from your hotel room will be searched through about 3 times before it gets to the tip. It will be sorted through at the hotel, at the temporary transfer station & again at the dump. Have a drive through the back streets of Denpasar during the day & see the scavengers checking the garbage. Every afternoon around 3pm you will see a guy sitting on the beach road at the back of Melasti Beach resort checking through the rubbish. I believe that this is where much of the credit card fraud in bali comes from. Be careful with you credit card dockets.
