Are you supposed to remove the plastic wrappers off water bottles before putting them in the recycle bin? I know alot of water bottles have a paper wrapper, which makes it ok to get recycled but what about the plastic wrappers?

  1. you do not need to remove the wrapper, when it gets to masons recycling facility, it will get put into the tumbler and get sorted with the other recyling, put into bundles and recycled with the bottle at the next stage.


  2. It doesn't matter it might be more helpful to remove it however either way people will appreciate you recycling! ;-)

  3. i think it is 122

  4. The wrappers are made from a different material.  You should remove the wrapper and recycle it with the same type of plastic.

  5. Don't worry about taking off the labels.  The sorting center will take care of that for you.  They can also do it much faster that we can (automated), so no need to waste time!
