NEW! Leave Caps and Lids on Plastic Bottles or Put them in the Garbage

Plastic markets will now accept bottles with caps on them. 

However, at the recycling center, loose caps and lids contaminate other recyclables, including paper bales and glass loads.

Remember to leave caps on plastic bottles or throw them in the garbage!

Even more important, drink tap water from reusable containers whenever possible. Drinking tap water saves over 20 times as many resources as recycling plastic water bottles!
