Does your plastics in your recycling can gotta neck? If you answer YES then you are doing it right!
If you answer NO you are spoiling your recycling, and wasting your time even doing it! On top of everything else you are costing Mecklenburg County NC nearly two million extra dollars in time and hauling fees to the Speedway landfill!
Only plastic bottles with necks are recyclable curb side in our county. NO Other plastics of any kind. Throw all those other plastics in the trash!
If you are one that bags anything in that recycling cart you also are wasting time and costing millions extra in our solid waste fees each year! NONE of those bagged items get recycled! They are NEVER opened and go straight to the speedway landfill from the recycling center!
