Recycle Right! Common Recycling Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Recycle Right! Common Recycling Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

Most people want to do the right thing when it comes to recycling, but confusing messages make it difficult to remember the basics. The recycling system throughout San Diego County only works if everyone does their part to keep the right materials in the blue bin and the wrong ones out. Residents make decisions every day when faced with a greasy pizza box, a dirty take-out container or a used single-use coffee cup from a favorite coffee roaster. In hope or haste, we dispose of these items, but do we collectively Recycle Right and what are the consequences of not doing so?

Join I Love A Clean San Diego in partnership with the County of San Diego for this free info session on all things recycling. We will be discussing some of the most confusing culprits of the waste stream, and why HOW you recycle matters.
