1) After the Shabbos meal, when clearing off the table, it is permissible to remove all the glasses, then all the plates, then all the silverware etc. and doing it is such an order is not a problem of Borer as these utensils are not considered to be in a mixture. (Ruling of Rav Nisim Karelitz Shlita quoted in Orchos Shabbos page 132 footnote 10)
2) A plate that has on it leftover food as well as silverware touching the food is not considered a mixture as they are totally distinct objects, and the silverware may be removed even if they are not going to be used immediately.
The exception to the above is if the silverware is totally covered by the leftover food in which case it will indeed be considered a mixture and may not be removed unless it's for immediate use. (Ruling of Rav Nisim Karelitz Shlita quoted in Orchos Shabbos page 133 footnote 12)
If indeed this situation presents itself, it would be permitted to pick up the utensil and use it to move the leftover food into the garbage, even if the assistance of the utensil was neither necessary nor originally planned upon (ibid. footnote 13)
Likewise, a utensil that fell into the garbage, and is totally covered may not be removed unless it will immediately be and used. (ibid.)

QUESTION & ANSWER CORNER
Reader Submitted Questions of interest on topics related to Halachos we covered, as well as other interesting topic and Answers. Taken from the Q & A pages on the Halacha For Today website.
Although the answers I give to questions are taken directly from the Sifrei HaPoskim, and aren't my own, they are still for study purposes only, NOT for Psak Halacha.
Questions can be emailed to HalachaForToday@Yahoo.com
Reader's Question:
My family doesn't say "Layehudim Haysa Ora..." aloud altogether at Havdalah- is there a halachik source for everyone to say it out loud?
Answer:
My family doesn't say it loud either. It is only a Minhag that some people say that Posuk loud, while other people do not.
From the language of the Rama in Siman 296:1 it doesn't seem that he had the minhag either for anyone other than the one reciting Havdalah to say this or any other Pesukim.
