Recycling is a great way to help the environment by reducing the amount of trash you throw away. However, most recycling centers have strict rules surrounding both what items they will accept and how these items need to be sorted.
If you would like to start recycling more often, but aren’t sure what the rules are, keep reading. These tips will provide some insight into typical recycling policies so that you can dispose of your products properly.
- You cannot recycle anything with food remnants on it, so rinse every container you wish to recycle carefully.
- Most types of plastic are allowed, but some common products, like plastic bags, are not. You can find a comprehensive list of accepted plastics online. (And grocery stores often have recycling bins for plastic bags.)
- To simplify the process, separate glass, paper products, and plastic products in advance so that you can place them into the proper recycling bins.
- Nearly all recycling centers are unable to accept Styrofoam products.
