It's ridiculous.<br />Green Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988134199408897833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5909575150882551215.post-60399987841377797852016-10-26T10:46:48.814-04:002016-10-26T10:46:48.814-04:00Hi! There is some added confusion and frustration ...Hi! There is some added confusion and frustration because many local areas have their own rules. For instance, where I live we are given a list of what we can and cannot put into the recycle bin. They don't want any plastic bags in there at all, and only certain numbers for the plastics. Glass, but no lids, etc. Newspapers but no magazines.<br /><br />Some areas need to separate their recycling into groups. We do not, so it all goes into one bin.<br /><br />Anyway, my point is that you have to make sure you're conforming to whatever your local recycling rules are, in addition to these general rules above.
