Not all plastics are created equal
Ever stared at that little triangle with a number and thought... what does this even mean?
Here’s the breakdown of plastics #1-7 and how recyclable they actually are.
1 PET & 2 HDPE: Widely recycled - water bottles, milk jugs
3 PVC & 6 PS : Difficult to recycle
5 PP : Sometimes accepted
7 OTHER : Hardest to recycle
Pro tips:
Rinse containers, remove lids, check local rules.
Save this for your next recycling day.
