🛢️ Let’s Talk Plastic Oil Containers

We know it’s plastic, and you would think it belongs in your recycling bin. ♻️ But if the container still has oil or residue in it, we cannot accept it in the recycling.

Plastic containers need to be empty, clean, and rinsed before they go in your recycling bin.

🚫 Plastic oil containers with residue do NOT belong in your recycling.
