Question

office waste=stapled papers, fastened papers, etc. What steps should i do? Also, It should be done efficiently, like helping the environment and not actually causing more pollution to recycle..=))

Answer 1

burn it

Answer 2

recycle is the best way

Answer 3

If you are taking your paper products to the Victoria Recycling center on Huvar Street..you no longer have to separate the staples from papers. As a teacher who recycles, this was a major pain. The group that now takes their paper recyclables has the mechanical technology to separate the staples from the papers. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

If you are recycling the paper, just rip off the stapled corner and throw it away. You still recycle a lot of paper that way. No idea how to separate the staple or other fastener easily.

Answer 5

In most recycling processes, the paper is re-pulped in tanks of water. Staples, clips, spiral bindings, and such sink to the bottom and the pulp is raked off the top. No problem.

Answer 6

either buy the machines that do it or do it by hand.

Answer 7

there are machines made for that . google it.
