Remember to Recycle Right. Garbage and other nonrecyclable<br />
items mixed in with your blue recycled cart can<br />
contaminate the load. A recent study found that Coral Springs<br />
recyclables are contaminated with 17 percent garbage. Foam<br />
cartons, trays, and plastic bags are considered contaminants.<br />
Corrugated cardboard is recyclable, but soiled pizza boxes are<br />
not. Although paper towels, paper plates, and paper napkins<br />
are paper, they are not considered recyclable, so toss those in<br />
the garbage. Let’s work together to lower our contamination<br />
rate. Put those non-recyclable items in the green cart where it<br />
will be disposed of at a waste to energy plant and converted<br />
to electricity. To learn more about Recycling Right, call<br />
954-344-1196. P<br />
