• Do recycle all empty bottles, cans, paper and cardboard. No glass in bins!
• Do keep foods and liquids out of recycling.
• Do keep plastic bags out of recycling.
• Do recycle glass at Ripple Containers ONLY, located at Spring Hill Price Chopper.

DON'T 

• Don’t bag your recyclables. Plastic bags and films get tangled in machinery. 
• Don’t include food-soiled items. They can turn an entire load of recycling into trash. 
• Don’t add sharp or dangerous materials like needles and electronics. They can cause injury to workers. 
• Don’t toss in “tanglers” like rubber hoses and wires. They can shut down an entire recycling center. 
• Don’t include bulky items like propane tanks or construction debris.
