I can't find a recycling place that takes 3-7 type plastics, only 1-2. Any ideas?

Question

I live in S.E. Michigan (Detroit area). I haven't been able to locate anywhere that takes more than just the 1 & 2 plastics. I have a lot of 3, 5, 7 plastics that are just getting thrown away because I can't find anywhere that will take them. Thanks!

Answer 1

I live in north Texas,where they take all kinds of plastics-even type 50 bazillion!Well,I'm sure they would if that was a type.But anyway,you could do a little research to see where in Michigan they do take those plastics,then when you find a recycling plant,you could send the plastic to that plant so it does not go to waste.

Answer 2

go to www.earth911.org type in what you want to recycle and your city you will get a list of nearby recycle centers.
