First, check your local requirements. Recycle by City has simple visual breakdowns for L. A., Chicago, Houston, Austin, Philadelphia, Flagstaff, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood. Otherwise find your citys sanitation department site. NYC and Phoenix have simple dodont guides. Dont Recycle Bubble padded envelopes. Wax paper. Dirty napkins, tissues, toilet paper, or paper towels. Glass thats not a bottle or jar. Photo paper Usually not recyclable, but it depends on the brand. Containers with a lot of food or liquid in them Empty and rinse them, but dont stress over it theyre cleaned at the facility.

When in doubt, rip off the greasy part and throw it out. Paper with clear windows or staples.

Instead, find a recycling center, store, or neighborhood program that accepts them. There are exceptions L. A. allows clean bags and other soft plastics. Clothing and textiles Look up drop off options. Motor oil Your city might require you to put it on the curb separately from all other trash. Batteries and electronics Take them to a donation center or a store like Best Buy. If you throw out your batteries, at least tape down the terminals to reduce the risk of fire.
