Curbie is now accepting more recyclable materials! In addition to all the other recyclables we accept, you may now recycle:
NEW! All plastic bottles, jugs,
and containers #1-#7 (pretty much any plastic container from the grocery store). Plastic bottles and jugs, margarine tubs, yogurt containers, plastic deli clams, pill bottles, etc! (Exceptions: Sorry, but we still can’t accept black microwaveable trays and styrofoam)
NEW! Milk & Juice cartons and Juice Boxes! (Gable top cartons and aseptic containers)
OUT, greasy spot! All about recycling pizza boxes: bit.ly/curbiepizza
They take recycling seriously!
All over the world, people depend on recycling every last piece of plastic, glass, and metal. In parts of Cairo, Egypt, for instance, families sort out each tiny piece of blue plastic from bright green, bright green from dark green and so on.
Meanwhile, in Mumbai, India’s first ever polyethylene (PET) bottle recycling machine for consumers was launched by Bisleri International here. For over a decade, Bisleri International has been working on enhancing recycling of used PET bottles in India.
Curbie makes the job a little easier, don’t you agree?
Something else-again!
Do you know where your plastic bottles go? Are they made into more bottles or something else? The answer may surprise you!
So exactly what may I recycle?
