The only items that can be recycled are paper, cardboard, metal cans and lids, foil, glass bottles/jars, and plastic containers. The worst thing you can put in your recycling bin is a plastic bag. That’s because plastic bags jam up the machines at the recycling center. However, plastic bags are still recyclable. You can drop them off at collection boxes in most large stores.
