How can i recycle the plastic inside the kids Easter eggs? There must be tons of it kicking about today?

Question

Is there a difference between this plastic and say plastic juice bottles??

Answer 1

Put it in your recycle bin.

Answer 2

You have been conned as well?  What possible difference will this make as China opens a coal fired power station every three days. We are a very small country in real terms.  Feel happy while they tax the life out of you for feeling guilty about the environment!  If you really believe, don't buy it.

Answer 3

where I live in Her ts there is a tescos that actually do recycle plastic and also a Sainsburys where one of my daughters lives also do it - perhaps phone your stores and they will tell you if any around you do so

Answer 4

You cant recycle it.

Dont worry,the whole climate issue is nothing more than an emotive con for Brown to divide us and tax us till the pips squeak.

Answer 5

Such a waste isnt it?  Unfortunately, most boroughs are not able to recycle the plastic used for the eggs.  The cardboard box is fine though (obviously!).  The real shame is that alot of this plastic is recyclable but the city doesnt have the resources to recylce every type of plastic.

Answer 6

Where I live we have bags for plastic and paper/card which is collected with our refuse and recycled. If this is not the case in your area, maybe you have a recycle plant near you where you can take it.

I suppose if you think hard enough you could think of something to make out of it. I can't think of anything though.

Answer 7

we'll be recycling ours. we put it in the bag with the glass bottles, plastic bottles, tins etc.

We did the same at christmas with all the packaging from their toys.
