Re: [Chat] recycled cans in plastic bags
No plastic bags for recycling. The plastic bags jam up the machines that sort the types of recycling, so putting your cans in plastic bags costs us money. The workers have to empty the bags to avoid jamming the sorting machine. Linda Joshua Fruhlinger jf...@jfruh.com 5/13/2009 1:32 PM Hello all- Now that we have single-stream recycling, we don't have to put our cans in plastic bags like we did before. But are we *forbidden* to put them in plastic bags? I've been dumping them out of the bags and into my bins, bu it would be easier for me if I could just put bags of cans in the the bins. Advice appreciated. jf ___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/ ___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/
