Recycling plastic for our sake refers to plastic #1 and plastic #2. The number ‘1′ or ‘2′ will be on the bottom of the plastic container.

Plastic #1: Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETE)
Common uses: 2 liter soda bottles, cooking oil bottles, peanut butter jars. This is the most widely recycled plastic and often has redemption value under the California "Bottle Bill."

 

Plastic #2: High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
Common uses: detergent bottles, milk jugs.

Milk jugs can stay around for over twenty-five years. Now that’s my idea of garbage sitting in landfills. Just drop in bins and we’ll take care of the rest. Recycling plastic is a great necessity and we thank you for your help!
