Can residents remove recycling from shared bins in a body corporate?

I don’t see why this wouldn’t be acceptable, provided you can retrieve the containers safely.

Has anyone complained about you doing this? Perhaps some people are concerned you may have an accident or are making a mess. I’m presuming you don’t do this.

So your intent is clear, you could send a note to your committee advising them of what you are doing and ask if they have any questions.

On a wider note for anyone interested in having a similar program at their scheme, collection programs like this are a positive way your body corporate can make a difference. A few organisations are running these programs. Our company has worked with Containers for Change and we are happy to recommend them.
