Not in the Bin
These can harm workers, jam equipment, or turn a whole load of recycling into trash
What About...
CUPS
ONLY empty, clear, non-PLA plastic cups are recyclable. Paper, colored and PLA cups go in the trash. Reusable cups and bottles are best.
Pizza Boxes
EMPTY pizza boxes, even with a little grease, are ok to recycle. Cheese, pizza, liners and pizza savers/tables are not. Compost or put in trash.
Plastic Bags
Plastic bags and other films and wraps are NOT recyclable with bottles and cans, but you CAN brig them to many retailers to recycle.
Bottle Caps
Put plastic caps ON the empty plastic bottles, so they don’t fall through the screens. Leave all caps OFF glass bottles.
Styrofoam
Foam items CANNOT be recycled with bottles and containers. It gets smashed to bits and contaminates everything else.
Milk Cartons and Juice Boxes
Multi-layer containers are not recyclable in our system. Dispose with trash.
