Historical Summer 2020 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

This may be a strange time to address recycling but only 1/2 the energy is used to recycle than to produce material anew. DON’Ts • Never put plastic bags in recycling bin.

It damages machinery and items in bag are not recycled. • Breakdown all boxes from Amazon to cereal.

This takes up less space in bin and more neighbors can recycle. • Put all recycling in bin loose. • Do not put plastic chairs or other large objects in bins. DO’s • Plastic containers can have their tops. • Rinse all food containers but they do not have to be totally clean. You can recycle peanut butter jars. • If your glass bottles have metal caps, put them in bin separately. • Recycle all metal cans.
