Can you recycle all of the following?

Question

Paper envelopes with plastic bubble wrap inside? (How would you do that)

Paper with ink printed on it?

Labeling stickers for packaging?

Plastic bowls that have been broken?

Cardboard? (And would this go in with paper?

Plastic bottles with lids on or off? (Which one?)

Thanks.

Answer 1

1. Most NO (most do not except these)

2. All YES (the ink washes out when they put the paper in water to turn it into new paper)

3. Most YES (they are generally either made into new stickers or used for recycling garbage)

4. All YES (it doesn't matter if they are broken, just try to get rid of any sharp edges to be considerate)

5. Yes/ Most NO (they mostly have separate collections, put them in different bags)

6. OFF (they will just throw out bottles with lids, you should always take lids OFF)

Hope this answers all of your questions!

Answer 2

The following can be recycled:

paper envelopes, no bubblewrap inside though, (but these can be reused many many times)

Paper with ink printed on it can be recycled

Cardboard can be recycled with paper unless otherwise labeled.

plastic bottles without lids

i am not sure about labeling stickers. Also, some areas recycle certain things, while others do not, so just because the service is not available in your area, doesn't mean that it can't be recycled.

Answer 3

go to www.earth911.org and find your local recycle centers. Each center decides what they will take and what they will pay.

In general paper and cardboard are easy but should be separated. Plastic bottles with lids off. Plastic bowls depends on what type of plastic, check the chasing arrows on the bottom. Envelopes, the paper would have to be separated from the bubble wrap and I don't know about the bubble wrap, labeling stickers could be tricky too.

Answer 5

It depends on what the company that takes you garbage and recyclables will take.  They should have guidelines posted on their website.  Ours seems to take almost everything, and

we don't even have to separate it.

Answer 8

I know where I live they take almost all of things you listed. Plasic bottles w/o caps.

Answer 9

My recycler takes all of that.  You have to call them to see which plastic bottles they will take. I've lived in cities where they won't take #1 or 2, but where I live now, they do.

Answer 10

You can recycle everything if you are ingenious and can figure out a way to reuse it yourself.
