cat food cans lined with plastic okay?
water bottles and bottle caps?
water bottle caps on or off?
several cat food cans and lids, plastic lined, washed, in plastic grocery bags?

Single stream recycling is the best. After leaving good old P’cola, I now live in an area that has curbside recycling, but I have to seperate glass, plastic and paper. I still try to do it but I do not always take the time now.

Keep it single stream and keep it green!

In response to Gembeaux: No, the reason that we do not accept polystyrene foam products at this time is because the company that currently processes our recyclables does not accept them.

If it has a recycle emblem printed on it I throw it in the recycle can. Makes sense to me that way

Is the acceptability of styrofoam meat trays, egg cartons, etc., a cost issue? I’ve lived in other areas where these items were accepted in comingled recycleables. Publix accepts them, but that’s a long drive to make just for that, and requires a separate storage here for us.
